As the post said, "If you read the full email, you learn that Trenberth is actually informing fellow climate scientists about a paper he'd recently published"

"an email he thought would never see the light of day."
His thoughts were actually right there in the paper, for all to read. One didn't have to steal e-mails to see it. In the paper, he suggested the heat was being stored below 900 feet in the ocean. When something is missing, you look for it.... and there it is... some even below 2300 feet.

" In the last decade, about 30% of the warming has occurred below 700 m, contributing significantly to an acceleration of the warming trend. "

Distinctive climate signals in reanalysis of global ocean heat content

Abstract[1] The elusive nature of the post-2004 upper ocean warming has exposed uncertainties in the ocean's role in the Earth's energy budget and transient climate sensitivity. Here we present the time evolution of the global ocean heat content for 1958 through 2009 from a new observation-based reanalysis of the ocean. Volcanic eruptions and El Niño events are identified as sharp cooling events punctuating a long-term ocean warming trend, while heating continues during the recent upper-ocean-warming hiatus, but the heat is absorbed in the deeper ocean. In the last decade, about 30% of the warming has occurred below 700 m, contributing significantly to an acceleration of the warming trend. The warming below 700 m remains even when the Argo observing system is withdrawn although the trends are reduced. Sensitivity experiments illustrate that surface wind variability is largely responsible for the changing ocean heat vertical distribution.
