Water has a high specific heat, meaning it takes large energy transfers for it to change temperature. Additionally, water from deep down, where surface temperatures have little effect, can mix with surface water, reducing or lessening temperature changes. As a result, the ocean warms less in the summer and cools less in the winter than land does, resulting in fewer extremes of temperature.
