Ocean Science Modelling the seasonal variability of the Antarctic Slope Current
Abstract. One of the main features of the oceanic circula-tion along Antarctica is the Antarctic Slope Current (ASC). This circumpolar current flows westwards and contributes to communication between the three major oceanic basins around Antarctica. The ASC is not very well known due to remote locat...
