if the ocean climate were no changing, the heat fluxes into and out of the ocean would be equal. let's suppose that these fluxes are slightly out of balance and that of the 342 W/m^2 (1Watt= 1Joule/s) that reaches the upper atmosphere 4 W/m^2 contributes to warming the oceans. if a heat flux of 4 W/m^2 covered the 3.75x10^16 m^2 ocean surface and contributed only to a change in temperature, how many years would it take to raise the average temperature of the oceans 2 degrees C
