Think of what would happen if you could pump cold deep water up to the surface, increasing the air / sea temperature gradient and warming the water; that would give you an anomalously large ocean heat uptake.

My guess is it increases OHC by decreasing the formation of cold deep water, this would have a temporary (hundreds of year though) heating effect at the surface.

Ocean temperature change, however, reached a lower limit, probably because the freezing point of sea water put a restriction on how cold the deep ocean could get.

Nobody cares about milli - degree warming of the vast, cold deep ocean nor can such heat move against a temperature gradient and come out to bite us.

While such a «missing heat» explanation for a lack of recent warming [i.e., Trenberth's argument that just can not find it yet] is theoretically possible, I find it rather unsatisfying basing an unwavering belief in eventual catastrophic global warming on a deep - ocean mechanism so weak we can't even measure it [i.e., the coldest deep ocean waters are actually warmer than they should be by thousandths of a degree]...

Now the researchers noticed that all of these flu pandemics started in the boreal spring or summer and were preceded by La Niñas — the phases in the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) that see large upwelling of cold deep ocean water in the East Pacific, which is then spread out across much of the ocean.

Between 2 and 3 million years ago the cooling of the deep oceans reached a tipping point, and modern upwelling regions ogf cold deep water off the coast of Peru, California and the west coast of Africa were established.

On my rough calcs, this upwelling of cold deep water spreading out under the tradewinds will be enough to affect surface temps at the times of climate regime reversals, and sure enough there is a giveaway dip near the peak of the AMO, and the troughs are spikier than the crests of the AMO curve.

The vertically integrated inventory of human emitted CO2 in the oceans is (not surprisingly) much greater in areas of cold deep convection, especially in the northern Atlantic (the falling leg of the thermohaline circulation), and much less in the tropics where the ocean is strongly stratified; absorption in the tropics really is more in the near - surface waters.

When the wind - driven ocean circulation is intense, such as during the negative phase of the IPO & La Nina, there is strong upwelling of cold deep water along the equator, and along the eastern coasts of the continents.

Um... while the oceans as a whole would have to cool, the sea surface would have to warm up substantially in order to transfer lots of heat to the air (and in order to warm up substantially, I suppose there would have to be reduced circulation with cold deeper waters).

Gerald: < br / > If the sun was the primary source heating the earth then the temperature would get colder the deeper we dig.

Upwelling of cold deep water continues to feed the cool pool, which grows, frequently reaching the West coast of S. America.

So we have a surface layer (100 - 200m) warmed from above, deep oceans being their cold selves, and in between the thermocline, the transition from warm surface to cold deep ocean, warmed by conduction from the surface layer above.

As a scientist, he predicted in 1797 that the cold water in the ocean depths had to be coming from Arctic latitudes, a cold deep counterpart to the warm surface Gulf Stream.

It is this colder deeper water reaching the surface waters that restrains an increase in GMST to less than that naively expected from solar or atmosperic changes just as it is warmer water rising to the surface (such as, obviously, El Nino) that boosts an increase in GMST to more than that naively expected from solar or atmosperic changes.

Currently the thermal process dominates and we have a cold deep ocean.

It is not that heat enters the oceans which could reduce an increase in GMST, it is that colder deeper water must rise to the surface if warmer surface waters are being pushed downwards.

12 vertical density currents that occur when cold deep water comes to the surface can occur anywhere, prevalent along western coasts of continents

The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC)-- characterized by warm surface waters flowing northward and cold deep waters flowing southward throughout the Atlantic basin — is defined as the zonal integral of the northward mass flux at a particular latitude.

(That warming is mostly due to a slowdown in exchange of cold deep water with surface water.)

Re # 134 AK, as you point out, cold deep water brought to the surface will sink unless it is distributed widely enough to mix with the surface water and reach an equilibrium temperature that will keep it near the top.

Upwelling cold deep water brings up the macro nutrients (nitrate and phosphate ions) and micronutrients (iron) that are abundantly dissolved in the deep water.

Notably, in the article itself, it said the warm shallow current sped up while the cold deep current slowed down.

(By the way, neither has sea - level rise due to thermal expansion, because the thermal expansion coefficient is several times larger for warm surface waters than for the cold deep waters — again it is warming in the surface layers that counts, while the total ocean heat content tells us little about the amount of sea - level rise.)

The thermocline is the boundary between the sun - drenched top ocean layer and the colder deeper layer.
