The Antarctic Circumpolar Current, the planet’s most powerful ocean circulation system, could slow by 20 percent by 2050 due to melting Antarctic ice. Researchers suggest that the influx of ...

But there's also a much less well-known behemoth of a current that sits just to Australia's south. It's called the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) and it's enriched with eddies and jets.

The Southern Ocean, which circles the globe without being blocked by land, is home to the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), the longest of the world's ocean currents. Also known as the "channel ...

But a new study suggests the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), which until now has been extremely stable, might begin to slow down in the next 25 years, with potentially severe consequences for ...
