Mesoscale eddies are considered the “weather” of the ocean

Analyzing ocean mixing reveals insight on climate

Global climate simulations are beginning to be able to resolve the largest ocean eddies, called mesoscale eddies, which are considered the “weather” of the ocean. The model that the Laboratory researchers developed for ocean mixing leads to an improved understanding of these mesoscale eddies and how they mix the ocean waters. This information increases global climate simulation accuracy through a better representation of heat fluxes and carbon into the deep ocean.

Eddies move heat, carbon, and other biogeochemical tracers from the ocean surface into the deep ocean and, as a result, store the carbon and heat away from the atmosphere. Transport and mixing regulates the global climate and the distribution of natural marine resources.

Right.

Models.

Did you mention the Oregon Oyster Eating Pacific Blob that's devouring the Manmade Global Climate Warming Change?

yeah?

"In 2005, the natural Pacific oyster spawn failed at Willapa Bay in Washington. The problem was traced to a bacterial infection (Vibrio tubiashii) that is particularly virulent to Pacific oyster larvae. It failed again in 2006, and 2007, and 2008. The solution was to put out artificially spawned spat from (among others) the Whiskey Creek Hatchery (WCH) on Netarts Bay in northern Oregon. There, brood oysters are cultivated at 18°C. They are induced to spawn by raising water temperature to 22°C, with the ensuing eggs and larvae held at 25°C until the spat sets. In 2008, 80% of the WCH spawn failed to set spat. This was quickly traced to V. tubiashii infection; concentrations were 100 times normal.

Shell game Climate Etc.

That's from 2011 Dude... When the oyster farmers first found out they could get money/help trying to raise non-native species in waters too cold for them to breed ----- IF they blamed their woos on GWarming..

NOAA then preceeded to ATTEMPT to kill baby oysters with MASSIVE doses of CO2 and failed.
It's a greedy oyster farmer issue. Forcing this non-native specie to breed year-round in waters already marginal for their safety.

And what's up with RDean's interest in Ocean Eddies? That's just good ole climate science without the hype and fear-mongering...

just trying to add to the oyster conversation....

im sure he will find a way to bring republicans into it....give him time....
