Ocean circulation and frontal structure near the southern Kerguelen Plateau during the Kerguelen Axis marine ecosystem survey

A relatively large research effort has historicallyfocused on the northern part of the Kerguelen Plateau,providing an improved view of the ocean circulation atregional (McCartney and Donohue, 2007; Park et al.,2008; Roquet et al., 2009) and more local scales (Parket al., 2009; van Wijk et al., 2010;...

Description
Summary:A relatively large research effort has historicallyfocused on the northern part of the Kerguelen Plateau,providing an improved view of the ocean circulation atregional (McCartney and Donohue, 2007; Park et al.,2008; Roquet et al., 2009) and more local scales (Parket al., 2009; van Wijk et al., 2010; Vivier et al., 2015).Here we focus on the ocean circulation and frontalstructure between the southern section of the KerguelenPlateau and the Antarctic margin (Heywood et al., 1999;McCartney and Donohue, 2007).
