Watch the skies and land and oceans

[Ellipse]

We already have the Earth changes summary videos but I thought it would be interesting to have big markers reported in a single thread. The title is from the C's citation in session from 9 March 2024.

What make me start this thread is this information which I found very interesting: The Atlantic is cooling fast and they do not know why. "After over a year of record-high global sea temperatures, the Atlantic is cooling off more quickly than ever recorded, which could impact weather around the world".

An admission that all their propaganda about global warming doesn't hold water?

Over the past three months, the shift from hot to cool temperatures in the equatorial Atlantic Ocean has happened at record speed. This emerging “Atlantic Niña” pattern comes just ahead of an expected transition to a cooler La Niña in the Pacific Ocean, and these back-to-back events could have ripple effects on weather worldwide.

Translation of the article reprinted by Courrier International:

What's happening to the Atlantic Ocean? After fifteen months of global ocean overheating, the world's second-largest ocean has been cooling faster than ever for the past three months.

As early as the beginning of May, the CBC was reporting that the waters off Nova Scotia were cooling, according to Canadian government records. ‘We have seen a continuation of the trend we observed in 2023, namely that temperatures are indeed returning to normal conditions, or even below normal in certain regions’, said biologist Lindsay Beazley, from the Canadian Department of Fisheries and Oceans.

The trend is continuing this summer. As the British magazine New Scientist reported on Monday 19 August, ‘Over the past three months, the transition from warm to cold temperatures in the equatorial Atlantic Ocean has occurred at record speed’.

The US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) stated in a press release on 14 August that, since June, the sea surface temperature in this area has been 0.5 to 1°C colder than the average for this time of year.
A climate system ‘going off the rails

This sudden change is disconcerting, explains Franz Philip Tuchen, an oceanographer at the University of Miami, to New Scientist, because the powerful trade winds that normally cause such cooling have not yet developed:

‘We've run through the list of possible mechanisms, and so far nothing fits’.

‘This is the latest in a long series of episodes in a climate system that has been going off the rails for several years’, worries oceanographer Michael McPhaden.

For Franz Philip Tuchen, if temperatures remain 0.5°C below normal for another month, we will officially be talking about an ‘Atlantic Niña’, i.e. the opposite phenomenon of El Niño (which periodically warms the Pacific Ocean, but also the Atlantic).

With the expected arrival of a Niña in the Pacific Ocean, the combination of the two climatic phenomena could influence global weather conditions. ‘There could be a struggle between the Pacific, which is trying to cool itself, and the Atlantic, which is trying to warm it’, says Michael McPhaden.
