This article aims to better understand the links between climate change and the recently observed significant increases in ocean stratification and the deepening of the mixed layer. Using a time series of ocean stratification data, we investigate potential “signals” of interactions with other climatic phenomena. Our findings reveal that the observed temporal patterns in stratification are primarily influenced by the El Niño-Southern Oscillation. However, this influence alone does not account for the overall increase in stratification or the deepening of the mixed layer observed since the 1960s. Instead, we demonstrate that these two phenomena are largely driven by the warming of the upper oceanic stratum (UOS). To incorporate these findings, we adapted a climate model developed in 2023, enabling it to account for the identified drivers. The enhanced model generates projections for five key global climate parameters: atmospheric temperature at the ocean level, UOS temperature, ocean cloudiness, ocean stratification, and mixed layer deepening. Our mathematical analysis of the model indicates that the relationships underlying these variables impose a clear growth trend on each of the five parameters, which eventually stabilizes toward finite limits. This stabilization results in values that remain within reasonable bounds, minimizing their impact on the planet and the global ecosystem. Under a comparable scenario, for example, the model predicts an increase of approximately 1℃ in global atmospheric temperature by 2100 – significantly lower than the 2°C increase projected by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
