A sheep in wolf's clothing.
He bowed the heavens also, and came down; and darkness was under his feet.
(2 Samuel 22:10) NKJV
The SciPop narrative of godless existence has been developed by the process of peer review. Peer review is the ruler of a pantheon of deities which serve to protect the 5 axioms of SciPop.

You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
(John 8:44) ESV
Scientific hypotheses must be falsifiable but the truth can’t be falsified, if it could it wouldn’t be true. Therefore popular science (SciPop) and truth are mutually exclusive.

Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before a fall.
(Proverbs 16:18 ) NKJV
Hitchens’s razor is one of the most popular atheist deities. It’s the intellectual equivalent of putting your thumbs in your ears and wiggling your fingers while sticking your tongue out. It’s regarded as intellectual high ground from which “scientists” can automatically dismiss anything said by a person of faith.

Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.
(Matthew 7:13-14) NKJV
Occam’s Razor is a problem-solving principle attributed to William of Ockham (c. 1287–1347), who was an English Franciscan friar and scholastic philosopher and theologian. The principle can be interpreted as stating:

To the chief Musician upon Mahalath, Maschil, A Psalm of David. The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.

Matty’s Paradigm, or Geocentrospheric Devolutionary Creation, has been developed from the principle God cannot lie and the Bible is true, which in turn was deduced from the Axioms of Principia Mattymatica.

Principia Mattymatica – Principle I
What is man that You are mindful of him, And the son of man that You visit him?
(Psalms 8:4) NKJV
If the truth about God is self-evident, as we’re told in Romans chapter 1 and which is confirmed by Hypothesis 16, what’s the significance for atheism? Atheism isn’t intellectually viable.

Freshening and warming of Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) between the 1980s and 2000s are quantified, assessing the relative contributions of water-mass changes and isotherm heave. The analysis uses highly accurate, full-depth, ship-based, conductivity–temperature–depth measurements taken along repeated oceanographic sections around the Southern Ocean. Fresher varieties of AABW are present within the South Pacific and south Indian Oceans in the 2000s compared to the 1990s, with the strongest freshening in the newest waters adjacent to the Antarctic continental slope and rise indicating a recent shift in the salinity of AABW produced in this region. Bottom waters in the Weddell Sea exhibit significantly less water-mass freshening than those in the other two southern basins. However, a decrease in the volume of the coldest, deepest waters is observed throughout the entire Southern Ocean. This isotherm heave causes a salinification and warming on isobaths from the bottom up to the shallow potential temperature maximum. The water-mass freshening of AABW in the Indian and Pacific Ocean sectors is equivalent to a freshwater flux of 73 ± 26 Gt yr−1, roughly half of the estimated recent mass loss of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet. Isotherm heave integrated below 2000 m and south of 30°S equates to a net heat uptake of 34 ± 14 TW of excess energy entering the deep ocean from deep volume loss of AABW and 0.37 ± 0.15 mm yr−1 of sea level rise from associated thermal expansion.
When I tell people that ocean water is warming from the bottom up a common response that I get is:
“Do you mean that the hottest waters are at the bottom?”
This is a great illustration of the intellectual bankruptcy of atheism. Atheists can’t comprehend simple logic, and one of the ways that they cope with it is to instinctively warp whatever you said into something that they can understand. Since atheists automatically assume that everyone who disagrees with them is idiotic, they intentionally misinterpret whatever you said into something idiotic.
My response is simple enough:
Water warms at the bottom, as this happens the water is displaced upward by colder water.
The article appears to confirm this. Bottom water is freshening because of an influx of water from melting polar ice. This is also driving ocean circulation.

Warmer oceans put coastal communities at risk, increase infrastructure costs, endanger polar creatures and threaten coral reefs and fisheries. Perhaps most alarmingly, rising ocean temperatures accelerate the overall warming trend.

The oceans are the flywheel of the climate system. As atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases increase, the Earth system is warming, and over 90 percent of that increase in heat goes into the ocean. Knowing how much heat the ocean absorbs is vital to understanding sea level rise (the oceans expand as they warm), and predicting how much, and how fast, the atmosphere will warm.

Observations of changes in the properties of ocean waters have been restricted to surface1 or intermediate-depth waters2,3, because the detection of change in bottom water is extremely difficult owing to the small magnitude of the expected signals. Nevertheless, temporal changes in the properties of such deep waters across an ocean basin are of particular interest, as they can be used to constrain the transport of water at the bottom of the ocean and to detect changes in the global thermohaline circulation. Here we present a comparison of a trans-Pacific survey completed in 1985 (refs 4, 5) and its repetition in 1999 (ref. 6). We find that the deepest waters of the North Pacific Ocean have warmed significantly across the entire width of the ocean basin. Our observations imply that changes in water properties are now detectable in water masses that have long been insulated from heat exchange with the atmosphere.
