Description:

Sea surface temperature increase in the global ocean exhibits marked spatial and temporal variations, with warming in the North Pacific significantly higher than in other basins since 2013. This accelerated warming is related to a shoaling of ocean surface mixed-layer depth and is partially dampened by an increase in anomalous net surface heat flux from the ocean. Among heat-flux components, latent heat flux is dominant.
