by the Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies Ocean measurements taken more than 135 years ago during the scientific expedition of HMS Challenger have provided further confirmation of human-produced global warming over the past century. The researchers also found the thermal expansion of sea water caused by this global warming contributed to around 40 per […]
