Ocean basins defined in this study for the basin integration: the Arctic Ocean (light red, 60°N–90°N), Atlantic Ocean (light brown, 30°S–60°N), the Indo-Pacific (light blue, 30°S–60°N) and the Southern Ocean (light green, 90°S–30°S).Changes in annual mean regional-integrated net energy flux at the top of atmosphere (vectors, orange), atmospheric energy transport at 30°S and 60°N (vectors, purple), annual mean basin-integrated ocean heat uptake (vectors, red), interbasin heat exchanges (vectors, blue) and annual mean basin-integrated ocean heat storage (black) in individual ocean basin in the mean of 2051–2100 relative to the mean of 2041–2050 in the 8-model SSP534OS simulations. The numbers are presented in the form of multi-model mean \(\pm\) one standard deviation among the 8 models in the unit of TW (1TW = 1012W).
