The circulation of the Southern Ocean connects ocean basins, links the deep and shallow layers of the ocean, and has a strong influence on global ocean circulation, climate, biogeochemical cycles and the Antarctic Ice Sheet. Processes that act on local and regional scales, which are often mediated by the interaction of the flow with topography, are fundamental in shaping the large-scale, three-dimensional circulation of the Southern Ocean. Recent advances provide insight into the response of the Southern Ocean to future change and the implications for climate, the carbon cycle and sea-level rise.
南大洋的循环连接着海洋盆地,连接着海洋的深层和浅层,并对全球海洋循环、气候、生物地球化学循环和南极冰盖有着强烈的影响。在当地和区域尺度上起作用的过程,这些过程往往通过流与地形的相互作用来调节,对塑造南大洋的大规模三维循环起着根本作用。最近的进展使人们深入了解了南大洋对未来变化的反应及其对气候、碳循环和海平面上升的影响。
