CONT

On évalue la quantité d'énergie emmagasinée dans l'océan en étudiant le contenu thermique des océans. La température de surface de l'océan est mesurée grâce à des capteurs embarqués sur des satellites. Ces données sont ensuite injectées dans des modèles, ce qui permet de quantifier le contenu thermique des océans sur toute la colonne d'eau.
