I thought I had explained this a while back? Stronger Pacific trade winds are the main reason.
Also ocean water is moved around in different ways it doesn't need to 'sink' . Phenomena like the Ekman transport combine with upwelling/downwelling for one provide movement of water layers.
You're not going to post that middle school experiment like someone did a few months ago to show cold water sinking without realizing that the water in the ocean has salt in it and that water in a glass doesn't have wind working on it are you? lol.....
Since you now invoke ocean currents, please comment on how the Pacific Decadal Oscillator serves to affect global climate and weather patterns.
