The Blob (Pacific Ocean) : ウィキペディア英語版 | The Blob (Pacific Ocean)
The Blob is a large mass of warm water in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of North America. It was first detected in late 2013 and is expected to continue throughout 2015. It is unusual in ocean conditions and is considered to have a role in the formation of the unusual weather conditions felt in the Pacific Coast.〔 The warm waters of the Blob are nutrient poor and have adversely affected marine life. ==Origin== The Blob was first detected in the autumn of 2013 and the early months of 2014 by Nicholas Bond of the Joint Institute for the Study of the Atmosphere and Ocean of the University of Washington, and his colleagues, when a large circular body of sea-water did not cool as expected and remained much warmer than the average normal temperatures for that location and season. Bond, who is the State Climatologist for Washington, coined the term "The Blob", with the term first appearing in an article in the monthly newsletter of the Office of the Washington State Climatologist for June 2014.
