Average global temperatures haven't increased much in the past 15 years, and scientists have been working to determine why.
A number of recent studies have fingered the ocean as the cause. Researchers believe heat that might otherwise warm the planet is being stored -- hidden, in a way -- in the sea.
A paper released Wednesday in the journal Nature adds to that body of evidence by linking the recent global warming hiatus to cooling in the equatorial Pacific Ocean.
