Leading lights of AGW science like England and Trenberth have both suggested the mechanism for this heat transfer to the bottom is wind. The absurdity of those positions are dealt with <a href=\"http:\/\/theclimatescepticsparty.blogspot.com.au\/2014\/05\/agw-more-wind-rubbish.html\">here<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.onlineopinion.com.au\/view.asp?article=16021&amp;page=0\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But such obvious rebuttals of the science of AGW does not stop the alarmists from peddling their beliefs and mischief. In a recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/climate.discussion\/303099583191541\/?notif_t=group_comment_reply\">online debate<\/a> this graph was posted:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/australianclimatesceptics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-21-at-6.04.59-pm.png?resize=610%2C395&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-935\" style=\"width:610px;height:395px\" width=\"610\" height=\"395\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/australianclimatesceptics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-21-at-6.04.59-pm.png?w=463&amp;ssl=1 463w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/australianclimatesceptics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-21-at-6.04.59-pm.png?resize=300%2C194&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 610px) 100vw, 610px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The source of course is Cook\u2019s (UN)Skeptical Science site and is highly misleading.

The lowest end of the graph is -10 Joules, the highest is +15 Joules. That gives us a 25 Joule delta. I see that they have scaled it at a factor of 10. 25 Joules converts to 0.01316412691165. We have to factor in the scale so we multiply by 10 and we come up with 0.1316412691165 &#8211; one tenth of a degree C between 1955 and 2014. Fabulous 1\/10 of a degree over 50 years. Stunning amount of warming there.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>This is an excellent point and was noted by other astute commentators including Lucia at <a href=\"http:\/\/rankexploits.com\/musings\/2013\/alternate-units-average-temperature-change-over-layer\/\">The Blackboard.<\/a> Lucia also converted the Joule graph into temperature:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/australianclimatesceptics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-21-at-6.08.36-pm.png?resize=602%2C395&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-937\" style=\"width:602px;height:395px\" width=\"602\" height=\"395\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/australianclimatesceptics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-21-at-6.08.36-pm.png?w=468&amp;ssl=1 468w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/australianclimatesceptics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Screen-Shot-2014-06-21-at-6.08.36-pm.png?resize=300%2C197&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 602px) 100vw, 602px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>That is astounding. Temperature at 2000 meters where England\u2019s and Trenberth\u2019s missing heat is supposed to be has gone up 0.09C since before 1960. Some missing heat. This is why the alarmists always post OHC graphs in Joules which have such bigger and scarier numbers. And that\u2019s assuming the measurements are correct. The Commenter\u2019s other valid point was that accurate measurements of OHC have really only been around since the ARGO measurements began in 2004.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using 2004 as a base\u00a0Commenter\u00a0has been busy producing graphs of the OHC in different areas of the world at\u00a0different levels based on the <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/file\/d\/0Bzo0RS9YHnS1eFVrRnBaVFpKbFE\/edit?pli=1\">official ARGO data<\/a>. The graphs of the ARGO data are simply another complete rebuttal of AGW science.
