The author argues: “In summary, evidence substantiates that a well-defined, persistent and non-moving ocean warm trend originating off the East Coast of the United States is the result of super-heated and methane enriched fluids emitted from numerous seafloor hydrothermal vents/hot springs. This has far-reaching implications concerning the root cause of current worldwide ocean warming.”

A well-defined ocean warming trend originating off the United States East Coast is likely from super-heated and methane-enriched fluids emitted from numerous seafloor hydrothermal vents/hot springs, says James Kamis at Climate Change Dispatch.
Supporting evidence:
This trend has shown up on shallow Sea Surface (SST) maps since their advent in 1997 and has likely been present for thousands of years.
The SST mapping system continuously measures worldwide ocean temperatures by integrating satellite and ocean buoy data.
Every two or three days the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) posts this temperature data in map view.
A review of SST data indicates that the East Coast ocean warming trend is the only very strong warming feature ever recorded along the entire East Coast.
The “ocean floor heat source point” has never moved (Figure 1). It has maintained the same temperature scale since 1997.
Integration then analysis of these characteristics and other information, primarily geological in nature, proves that the warm trend is the result of emissions from seafloor geological features such as a group of hydrothermal vents.
Conversely, these characteristics and other information prove that the forces and situations listed below are not the root cause of the East Coast ocean warming trend.
— Uniform worldwide atmosphere warming as per the global warming theory. Uniform atmospheric warming would lead to the generation of other East Coast warming trends that have the same temperature magnitude. This is not the case.
— Similar ocean water depth. Similar ocean depths are present all along the East Coast and none of these depths are home to another high-magnitude temperature ocean trend.
— Gulf Stream ocean current. A review of all SST Maps indicates that the Gulf Stream ocean current, which circumvents the entire north and the central Atlantic Ocean, has never generated another warming trend with the temperature magnitude as per the East Coast trend.
— Human-generated warm fluids flushed into the Atlantic Ocean. The East Coast warming floor heat source point encompasses an area off the coast of North Carolina and Virginia. This source point is not positioned near a major metropolitan area. Additionally, other large metropolitan areas such as Miami, Baltimore, and New York City do not have significant ocean floor heat source points and high magnitude temperature warm trends associated with them.

‘A well-defined ocean warming trend’
Fake precision. We have no such data.
From ‘Supporting evidence’:

“The SST mapping system continuously measures worldwide ocean temperatures by integrating satellite and ocean buoy data.”
Buoy data doesn’t exist. Argo float data represents 50,000 square miles per reading. Satellite data is top meter. 0.027% of the oceans.
We know nothing.
FAKE NEWS. This cannot possibly be true. Everyone knows it’s my backyard grill and lawnmower emitting Satanic Gases that is heating the planet! I read it in the NY Times and broadsides from NOAA and NASA. They wouldn’t lie, would they??
So is such warming extremely constant over decades/centuries or does it vary over time? If it varies, what effect does that have on climate?
Gamecock – the overall accuracy of the data can be questioned of course, but obvious anomalies like this East Coast one can tell us something even if we don’t know exactly what.
A review of all SST Maps indicates that the Gulf Stream ocean current, which circumvents the entire north and the central Atlantic Ocean, has never generated another warming trend with the temperature magnitude as per the East Coast trend.
Oldbrew, your quote is from the list of “not the root cause.”
“Not.”
‘well-defined ocean warming trend’
I presume these ‘hydrothermal vents/hot springs’ have existed since time immemorial. Citing a ‘trend’ for that which has existed forever is odd.
‘This trend has shown up on shallow Sea Surface (SST) maps since their advent in 1997 and has likely been present for thousands of years.’
It’s not a ‘trend’ if it has lasted thousands of years. Or even 23 years. It’s static.
‘A well-defined ocean warming trend originating off the United States East Coast is likely from super-heated and methane-enriched fluids emitted from numerous seafloor hydrothermal vents/hot springs’
There’s a hot spot.
‘A review of SST data indicates that the East Coast ocean warming trend is the only very strong warming feature ever recorded along the entire East Coast.’
There’s still a hot spot.
‘Integration then analysis of these characteristics and other information, primarily geological in nature, proves that the warm trend is the result of emissions from seafloor geological features such as a group of hydrothermal vents.’
Geological origin. It’s NOT a trend.
‘This has far-reaching implications concerning the root cause of current worldwide ocean warming.’
Not really. The phenomena has been observed for 23 years. What is the news here? That they found the source of the hot spot?
“current worldwide ocean warming”
Fake. We simply don’t know.

Sea Level Rise Was A Constant Phenomenon Even Before Industrialisation, New Study Finds
Date: 03/03/20 International Business Times
A study by the University of York found evidence for a period of enhanced pre-industrial sea-level rise of about 2-3 millimetres per year in three locations — Nova Scotia, Maine and Connecticut, which were largely natural, without any human constructions or man-made factors.
. . .
Previous studies have shown that, since the 1950s, rates of sea level rise along the Atlantic coast of North America were faster than the global average – leading to this region coming to be known as a sea level rise “hotspot.”
However, lead author Prof Roland Gehrels, from the University of York’s Department of Environment and Geography, said this earlier rapid episode of sea level rise in the 18th Century wasn’t known before.

oldbrew, most of the warmists deliberately and others unknowingly leave out the significant deflection of the US East Coast continental undersea shelf due to slow but massive pileup of solids from rivers that terminate in the ocean. Added to that is runoff of rains that come down to the ocean in small streams and rivulets.
