Which argument would that be and how does my employment status
influence matters? You appear to think argument from authority is
valid, since you feel lack of authority invalidates any argument.
Perhaps you should take some logic lessons?

I am correct about this. I don't know where you get your data. Light
penetrates water somewhat before it is absorbed. Currents of water
circulate and keep the heat from being radiated back out much better
than land mass. The reflectivity of land mass in general such as rock
and dirt is higher than ocean water. Of course deep vegetation has high
albedo, but much more solar radation is absorbed on a general basis by
ocean than land mass and the albedo in general is higher.

You really aren't.

Albedo = 1 - 100% reflectivity, shows as white
Albedo = 0 - 0% reflectivity, shows as black

Thus if it is dark, it has low albedo, and if it is light it has high
albedo. The ocean is dark, so it has low albedo. Land is light, so it
has high albedo.

Of course, this could just be a massive conspiracy by the world of
science to make you look stupid...

The phrase you are looking for, Kent, is 'I'm sorry, I got albedo
backwards and am not a scientific prodigy after all'

And even if it did, you obviously cannot do the most basic arithmatic on heat capacity and thermodynamics or you would see that it is IMPOSSIBLE FOR CO2 warm the ocean. Get back with your liitle boyfriends and make up some better lies on how CO2 traps all this heat which can't be DETECTED. It ain't gonna fly you saying that we just have to believe little dishonest runt school boys like you. Do you believe your own lies. Like the one you tell that you're and educated person.
