Southern Ocean heat uptake is large becau se the strong northward transport of the heat content anomaly limits warmi ng of the sea surface temperature in the uptake region. Using results from eddy-rich global climate simulations\, I will discuss the processes contr olling the northward heat transport away from the uptake region and the co nvergence of the heat content anomaly in the midlatitude Southern Ocean. H eat budget analyses reveal that different processes dominate to the north and south of the main convergence region. The heat transport northward fro m the high-latitude uptake region is driven primarily by passive advection of the heat content anomaly by the existing time mean circulation\, with a smaller contribution from enhanced upwelling. The heat anomaly builds up in the midlatitudes due to a convergent Ekman transport anomaly\, combine d with limited heat transport further northward into the mode waters. To t he north of the peak convergence region\, eddy processes drive the warming and account for nearly 80% of the northward heat transport anomaly.
