Does this look like what dominated should look like? Because I'm really curious which body of heat - the atmosphere or the ocean - is the dominant heat source of the planet. Which body of heat do you believe transfers heat to the other one? Now what stupid ass thing were you saying, dummy?
Ding, Master of Irrelevance
Only a non-engineer couldn't see the relevance of where the planet's heat is stored.
Are you really trying to say the oceans and the atmosphere aren't interconnected? That changing one doesn't change both?
No, I'm saying you are blowing the connection out of proportion. The sun heats the ocean. The atmosphere's contribution to heating the ocean is negligible. So it's the sun which drives the changes in ocean water density (i.e. salinity and thermal expansion). That and wind, which is also driven by the sun. You haven't studied any of this. I have. You are shooting from your hip. I'm not.
Perhaps you should go back and see what I actually wrote before having a tantrum.
That's not a tantrum. That's me stating reality.
That's why you should pay attention to what is actually written instead of letting your childish mind fill in the gaps that you seem to miss.
So glad you agree with me. Maybe net time be more clear. Especially when the connection is immaterial.
Sorry, my mistake. I should have known someone from the children's table needs every aspect of what is said to be explained. Making sure you understand all that is said before going off on a tangent is another skill you need to hone before you are allowed at the adult table.
Cut Ropey some slack. I'm sure he discussed his claims at the children's table before he made his post and most of them agreed with him.
fuck off
Just when it sounds like you meant the opposite of what you were saying.
Currents can be driven by wind and density changes. It's not an either or proposition. Effectively the sun drives salinity and density changes through uneven heating. Eventually the currents must change to equilibrate. Nature abhors a vacuum or some such shit.
Your comprehension on how salinity is changed in ocean waters and what currents that drives need some serious work.
These technical papers say otherwise.
