Is it true that oceans are warming faster than previously thought?
Unclear. Two sources partially support the claim: satellite data show sea-surface warming accelerating markedly since the 1980s, and one book asserts oceans are warming faster than previously thought. Neither fully settles that ocean warming exceeds prior scientific estimates.
