海洋质量和温度通量的两个主要相关性之间的遥远的水文断面在南大洋。质量运输是高度相关的部分之间的交叉南极绕极流在德雷克海峡，非洲南部，澳大利亚南部，而这些部分之间的温度输送的相关性较小。第二个相关性被发现在质量和温度通量之间的亚热带部分通过澳大利亚南部的印度洋和太平洋，和温度通量之间的相关性通过非洲南部的印度洋和大西洋。了解遥远水文剖面之间的通量相关性，可提供关于南大洋在全球翻转环流中的作用的信息。
Two dominant correlations of ocean mass and temperature fluxes are found among distant hydrographic sections in the southern ocean. Mass transports are highly correlated among sections crossing the Antarctic Circumpolar Current at Drake Passage, south of Africa, and south of Australia, while there is a smaller temperature transport correlation among these sections. A second correlation is found in the mass and temperature fluxes between subtropical sections across the Indian and Pacific Oceans via south of Australia, and a temperature flux correlation between the Indian and the Atlantic Oceans via south of Africa. Knowledge of the property flux correlation among distant hydrographic sections provides information on the role of the Southern Ocean in the global overturning circulation.
