Note the similarity in slope between the TWO curves between 1957 and 1991? Then note the deviation in rate: the deeper water starts accumuting heat faster than the shallower water. Does that sound the least bit familiar? That heat has been moving into the DEEP ocean is the central theme to what BTK and all the follow on studies found.
Tell you what, though. if you'd like a challenge. Since you claim the world stop heating up about the turn of the century, WHERE has the energy come from that caused the oceans to put on ~10x10e22 joules of energy since then? That's roughly 1.5 trillion times the energy of the 16 kTon Hiroshima explosion.
1 kTon TNT=4.184x10^9 J
4.184 * 16 * 1,000,000,000 = 6.6944x10^10 Joules @ Hiroshima
10x10^22 /6.6944x10^10 = 1,493,785,850,860 ~ 1.5x10^12
