‼️WARMING OF THE WORLD'S OCEANS. Sea surface temperature anomaly in the South Pacific.
🔶 East of New Zealand, a blob appeared in the South Pacific Ocean in December 2019, with temperatures 6 °C higher than average on certain days.
The blob had an area of more than a million square kilometers, equivalent to 1.5 areas of Texas or 4 areas of New Zealand It was reportedly the largest blob in the world's oceans at the time.
🔶 Moreover, the blob was the second largest event ever observed in the region.
🔶 James Renwick, a professor in the Department of Geography, Ecology and Earth Sciences at Victoria University of Wellington, noted that "This is the largest area of anomalous warming on the planet. Normally the water temperature there is about 15 °C, but now it's about 20 °C." The likely cause of the formation of this blob was the activity of an ancient volcanic plateau off the coast of New Zealand.
