According to the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), the deep parts of the ocean may be able to trap heat on the bottom of the ocean. This heat may be enough to flatten global warming. Parts of the ocean layers more than 1,000 feet deep show where "missing heat" has been for almost a decade during global warming times. They also suggest that intervals like this can happen many more times within the century.
According to NCAR researcher Kevin Trenberth, heat must have been buliding up on earth. Scientist Meehl used a powerful software tool now as Community Climate System Model which tracked where the heat was going. Using the model skill to track heat and interaction with the air and other areas of the earth the did five global temperature simulations. During this period of time the average surface temperature decreased across the tropical Pacific. In the Atlantic the surface waters converge to push heat into the deeper oceanic layers.
I am not sure about a final decision at this point about oceanic heat which is masking global warming, but I can safely say we should find a way to stop it. Because the heat at the bottom of the ocean is so intense and has been there for a while this may have helped the increase the intensity of global warming and may cause it to be worse.
