What concerns me is sloppy writing of this article. For example:
> In other words: the climb in ocean temperatures is the inevitable outcome of Earth's energy imbalance, primarily associated with increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases.[8]
The reference leads to https://doi.org/10.1007%2Fs00376-023-2385-2 https://doi.org/10.1007%2Fs00376-023-2385-2 which is an article that doesn’t establish the causal relationship between human emissions and rising temperatures. Rather, the authors use this as an opening and reference other works on the topic.
If you put a reference to back up your claim, the reference should be to a primary study and not some study that references other study that might be relevant.

It dates back before the doi system, so I don't think it has a link there. https://www.geographyrealm.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/1856-foote_sunsrays_247-248.pdf https://www.geographyrealm.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/18... “Circumstances affecting the heat of the sun’s rays”, pp 382-83 in: The American Journal of Science and Arts, Second Series, Vol. XXII — November, 1856 (Whole Volume).
