How much are the world's oceans warming? New method reveals double-digit percentage gaps from climate models

The world's oceans behave like a thermometer: As the water warms, it expands and sea levels rise. Geodesy researchers at the University of Bonn are able to measure this and determine how much the oceans are warming. For individual ...
