However, DK12 only consider the ocean heat content (OHC) increase from 0 to 700 meters, neglecting the OHC increase at greater depths. Here we include OHC data to a depth of 2000 meters and demonstrate this data explains the majority of the discrepancies between DK12 and previous works, and that the current global flux imbalance is consistent with continued anthropogenic climate change.

T14 infers data drift using an inappropriate statistic that poorly correlates with consensus. Analysis of appropriate consensus statistics reveals no significant data drift. T14 wrongly conflates abstract ratings and author self-ratings; differences are detailed in C13. Re-analysis without T14 0 s errors confirms 97 71% consensus on AGW.
