Deep ocean temperatures have also been rising over the decades: https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1029/202...


Yes, but it’s not uniform at all. The paper shows cooling in some parts of the north, and heating in the southern latitudes, along with significant variations by depth.

There’s a lot of nuance in this stuff - far more than global average surface temperature (which is primarily good for scary headlines) and “fish don’t have AC”.


Do you think the general statement “ocean temperatures are rising” is misleading?


No, but it's so vague that it's meaningless.


> Yes, but it’s not uniform at all.

Translation: "I expect all areas to be affected the same, despite axial tilt, fluid dynamics, etc."


No. Not everyone boils everything down to a sophomoric take.
