Measuring Global Ocean Heat Content to Estimate the Earth Energy Imbalance

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019
The energy radiated by the Earth toward space does not compensate the incoming radiation from the Sun leading to a small positive energy imbalance at the top of the atmosphere (0.4–1 Wm–2). This imbalance is coined Earth’s Energy Imbalance (EEI).

Decadal Changes of the Reflected Solar Radiation and the Earth Energy Imbalance

Remote Sensing, 2019
Decadal changes of the Reflected Solar Radiation (RSR) as measured by CERES from 2000 to 2018 are analysed. For both polar regions, changes of the clear-sky RSR correlate well with changes of the Sea Ice Extent. In the Arctic, sea ice is clearly melting,

Earth's Energy Imbalance More Than Doubled in Recent Decades

AGU Advances
Global warming results from anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions which upset the delicate balance between the incoming sunlight, and the reflected and emitted radiation from Earth.

Roles of Earth’s Albedo Variations and Top-of-the-Atmosphere Energy Imbalance in Recent Warming: New Insights from Satellite and Surface Observations

Geomatics
Past studies have reported a decreasing planetary albedo and an increasing absorption of solar radiation by Earth since the early 1980s, and especially since 2000. This should have contributed to the observed surface warming.

Heat stored in the Earth system 1960–2020: where does the energy go? [PDF]

Earth System Science Data, 2023
The Earth climate system is out of energy balance, and heat has accumulated continuously over the past decades, warming the ocean, the land, the cryosphere, and the atmosphere.

Monitoring the ocean heat content change and the Earth energy imbalance from space altimetry and space gravimetry [PDF]

Earth System Science Data, 2022
The Earth energy imbalance (EEI) at the top of the atmosphere is responsible for the accumulation of heat in the climate system. Monitoring the EEI is therefore necessary to better understand the Earth's warming climate.

Continental heat storage: contributions from the ground, inland waters, and permafrost thawing [PDF]

Earth System Dynamics, 2023
Heat storage within the Earth system is a fundamental metric for understanding climate change. The current energy imbalance at the top of the atmosphere causes changes in energy storage within the ocean, the atmosphere, the cryosphere, and the ...

A New Method Based on a Multilayer Perceptron Network to Determine In-Orbit Satellite Attitude for Spacecrafts without Active ADCS Like UVSQ-SAT

Remote Sensing, 2021
Climate change is largely determined by the radiation budget imbalance at the Top Of the Atmosphere (TOA), which is generated by the increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases (GHGs).

Underlying drivers of decade-long fluctuation in the global mean sea-level rise

Environmental Research Letters, 2021
Natural climate variability can mask the background trend of global mean sea-level (GMSL) caused by global warming. Recent advances in satellite measurements and ocean heat-content estimates have enabled the monitoring of GMSL budget components and ...
