For a few years, Joe Bastardi and Dr. Arthur Viterito have been testing their hypothesis that thermohaline circulation is the cause of the global warming that has been observed.
However, as Dr. Viterito says, there have been signs this year that the thermohaline circulation is weakening, sea surface temperatures are reducing and, as a result, 2025 may be a watershed moment in climate history.

Dr. Arthur Viterito, a retired professor of physical geography, has conducted extensive research on the thermohaline circulation and its impact on global climate change.

Thermohaline circulation is a component of the general oceanic circulation. It continually replaces seawater at depth with water from the surface and slowly replaces surface water elsewhere with water rising from deeper depths.
The process involves cold, dense water sinking in polar regions, particularly in the North Atlantic and near Antarctica, and spreading into the full extent of the ocean. This sinking water is replaced by surface water, setting up the circulation.
Thermohaline circulation plays a crucial role in transporting heat, nutrients and other materials vast distances, influencing regional and global climate patterns.
As we noted in a previous article, according to a 2024 study by Japanese researcher Dai Ato, sea surface temperature plays a dominant role in regulating atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO₂) levels. As sea temperatures rise, more CO2 is released into the atmosphere. Conversely, colder water can hold more dissolved carbon dioxide so when sea temperature decreases, the ocean absorbs more CO2 from the atmosphere.
Update on Geothermal inputs and evidence of changes: ‘Showing signs of cooling’ temps – ‘2025 may be a watershed moment in recent climate history’
By Joe Bastardi, a meteorologist and chief forecaster at WeatherBell, as published by Climate Depot on 14 April 2025
I have been working with Dr. Arthur Viterito over the past few years in an alliance that combines what I am observing in having to forecast the weather on a global scale every day and what he is gathering from what may be a significant cause of warming that is being observed.
I have found a great deal of resistance to this from both sides of the climate issue. I make no claim that I have to be right about this. All I am trying to do is make sure there is also a public place where you can see this and perhaps at least wonder about it. It’s not like “outrageous” ideas in many things have not, with time, been shown to be true, Given the natural resistance from those wishing to push the climate catastrophe issue, which is directly in line with a whole litany of issues they have deceived the public on in other matters: (Just a few examples: Russian Collusion, Hunter Biden laptop, Biden’s mental acuity, Covid, Social media censorship to impact an election. Feel free to add to the list), so if we find out this has merit it would join the list.
It is huge because it does put an end to the idea that man-made impacts on climate are the driver (although there are other reasons to believe they are not). And, of course, some of the resistance from my side is if it ends the debate, no more books, arguments or being able to claim you were the reason this was discovered. But all I am doing is trying to make sure, despite the vitriol that is hurled our way, that I keep you updated on this.
Dr Viterito writes:
As I reported a short while ago, the preliminary data from the Global Centroid Moment Catalogue (“GCMT” or “Quick Catalogue”) are showing a sharp downturn in mid-ocean seismic activity for this year (1/1 through 4/13). As I’ve also discussed, less mid-ocean seismic activity indicates less intense geothermal flux along mid-ocean ridges and rises, and this should cause the thermohaline circulation to weaken. In turn, thermohaline weakening results in the following:
- Reduced heat storage in the Indo-Pacific and Western Atlantic Warm Pools.
- Weakened western boundary currents.
- Reduced heat flow into the Arctic, diminishing the Arctic Amplification. [Arctic Amplification is the phenomenon where the Arctic region is warming at a faster rate than the rest of the world. The loss of sea ice is one of the most cited reasons for this acceleration.]
We are starting to see signs of these phenomena unfolding. As for the Info-Pacific Warm Pool, the most recent maps from Climate Reanalyzer (slide 1 in the attached PowerPoint*) and NOAA’s Operational Forecast maps (slide 2) clearly show a decline in SSTs [sea surface temperatures].
[*Note: There is no PowerPoint attached. We assume the slides being referred to are the images below.]
(Graphics are from ClimatereAnalyzer.org, NOAA and the DMI (Danish Meteorological Institute)
These two warm pools serve as “capacitors” for the Kuroshio (North Central Pacific) and Gulf Stream Currents (North Atlantic), and we see significant temperature declines for each of these currents (slides 4 through 6). The Greenland Current is also showing signs of cooling (slide 7).
Indirect evidence of a reduced Artic Amplification can be seen in the snow cover graph for Greenland (slide 8). Here we see a trend towards greater snow cover, commencing with a noticeable jump in January of this year.
Although VERY early in the cycle, these events have all the earmarks of an inflection point. If the trend continues, I have a feeling that 2025 may be a watershed moment in recent climate history.
Right or wrong, I applaud our subscriber base’s patience with me putting this on despite what has been vitriolic pushback in some circles, even from my side of the AGW [anthropogenic global warming] debate. It’s not like we have not seen that in other matters, climate etc, and with time, the truth comes out.
So, dear reader, we may be approaching the time over the next decade when the test of the idea gives us an answer. I do not know how someone truly looking for the answer would be opposed to that unless they had other motives.
