It seems only the Indian Ocean and the South Atlantic oceans are doing that currently. For over ten years, there has been no increase in the heat content of the Pacific and the North Atlantic oceans.
I'll have to get the corrected maps.
The ones that show walls between oceans. :roll:
Oh, and that is assuming that the Pacific isn't warming. 2013 was the warmest year on record. And why 10 years, why not 20? Or for that matter all the data???

Of course, if you pick the CORRECT 10 years, you can get almost no trend. Pacific temperatures increased faster than trend line in the 1990's to about 2003, then was a near flatline to 2012.
