Cyclonic eddies in the Antarctic Circumpolar Current

Instabilities of the jets associated with the Antarctic Polar Front and the Southern Polar Front generate cyclonic eddies which are trapped within the Antarctic Circumpolar Current. These eddies can be long-lived and exist for many months. In their core these eddies contain distinct masses of the co...
