| Abstract |
Much of the global uptake of anthropogenic heat has occurred in the Southern Ocean. Upwelling of cold, deep waters to the surface allows the heat uptake, which is then transported northwards through the overturning circulation. Although this variability in regional heat uptake is known, changes with future warming are unclear. |
