The location and coastline of the Falkland Islands (Islas Malvinas) are shown at increasing scale within panels (A), (B), and (C). Within panel (B), the generalized location and direction of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) and the Falkland Current (FC) are indicated in blue, and the Brazil Current (BC) is indicated in red.
