  • Publication number: 20200317303
    Abstract: A weather mitigation assembly for reducing the surface temperature of the ocean to mitigate developing oceanic weather systems includes a buoy that is floated on the ocean. An air pump is coupled to the buoy and a plurality of tethers is each coupled between the buoy and the ocean floor for keeping the buoy in a selected spot. A network of bubble pipes is each laid along the ocean floor. A supply pipe is fluidly coupled between the air pump and the network of bubble pipes. In this way the air pump can pump air into the network of bubble pipes. Each of the bubble pipes releases air bubbles upwardly toward the surface of the ocean urge cool water on the ocean floor upwardly toward the surface of the ocean. In this way the surface of the ocean can be cooled thereby reducing thermal energy available for developing weather systems.
