关于德雷克海峡南极绕极流（ACC）的结构和变化及其与大气的相互作用的新海洋数据揭示了一个比以前看到的更复杂的空间结构。它们还显示出在短时间内表层风和深层流之间的显著一致性。这些新的结果将是必不可少的，在全球气候动力学的极地地区的过程中的作用的理解。
New oceanic data on the structure and variability of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) in the Drake Passage and its interaction with the atmosphere have revealed a more complex spatial structure than has been seen before. They also show a significant coherence between surface wind and deep current at short periods. These new results will be essential in understanding the role of processes in the polar regions in global climate dynamics.
