SOUTHERN OCEAN CURRENTS AND RECURVATURE CURRENT
Of the surface ocean currents in the Antarctic seas, there are found the eastward-flowing current running east in the water Lat. 50°-60°S and the westward-flowing current more or less circling Antarctica in the water. South of Lat. 60°S, the latter being drifted by east wind. The first Antarctic exp...
