Ocean warming

Human activities have significantly increased the levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. This has led to a rise in trapped longwave radiation within the Earth system.

Climate models indicate that the Indian Ocean will experience uneven warming, with warming hotspots in the Arabian Sea (AS) and South East Indian Ocean (SEIO).

Even the colour of the sea is changing due to global warming, and this is nothing but a consequence of deeper ecological transformations. In the last twenty years, the colour of the ocean has undergone significant changes.

Global sea surface temperatures exceeded previous records last month. Never before has the temperature increased so rapidly. Scientists are still trying to figure out why this has happened

According to the research, published in Nature Reviews: Earth and Environment, as people emit greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, the Earth warms, and much of that heat (about 90%) ends up being absorbed by the oceans.
