Even the deepest, coldest parts of the ocean are getting warmer baloney

This alarmism and demagoguery piece of so called scientific journalism does not even pretend to discuss other explanations of this phenomenon! Orwellian double speak in action!

The observed temperature changes are minuscule and were observed over a period of only 10 years. These temperatures were only measured at four sites (four different depths) in the Northwestern Argentine Basin not globally or in all oceans of the world!

The abstract of the underlying research paper (see below) does not even mention any connection with Global Warming/Climate Change!

"“The deep ocean, below about 2,000 meters, is not very well observed,” says Chris Meinen, an oceanographer at the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration ... It’s too soon to judge whether human activity or natural variation is the cause, Meinen says"
Correct, little is actually known of what goes on in the depth of the oceans!

"Consecutive multiyear records of hourly ocean bottom temperature measurements are merged to produce new decade‐long time series at four depths ranging from 1,360 to 4,757 m within the northwest Argentine Basin at 34.5°S. Energetic temperature variations are found at a wide range of time scales. All sites exhibit fairly linear warming trends of approximately 0.02–0.04°C per decade over the period 2009–2019, although the trends are only statistically different from zero at the two deepest sites at depths of ~4,500–4,800 m ... Quantifying global temperature changes requires observations of the full atmosphere‐ocean system; however, long‐term, continuous observations of temperature deep within the ocean are exceedingly rare."

Global Warming/Climate Change is a hoax!

Even the deepest, coldest parts of the ocean are getting warmer | Science News  It’s not yet clear if a small increase in temperature is the result of climate change
