Which measurement constrains the current planetary energy imbalance?
Answer: D
The imbalance is under one watt per square metre against fluxes of 240, which is beyond the absolute accuracy of satellite radiometry, so it is inferred from the rate at which the ocean is warming. The Argo float array made that measurement possible. Satellite data constrain the variability of the imbalance well even though they cannot give its absolute value. A single measurement chosen to respond to the one asymmetry beats several that respond to shared behaviour.
