Deep oceanic mixed layer temperature anomalies from one winter become decoupled from the surface during summer and then «reemerge» through entrainment into the mixed layer as it deepens the following winter. (wattsupwiththat.com)
ENSO events, for example, can warm or cool ocean surface temperatures through exchange of heat between the surface and the reservoir stored beneath the oceanic mixed layer, and by changing the distribution and extent of cloud cover (which influences the radiative balance in the lower atmosphere).
