Position of the Southern Ocean polar fronts
The mean and time-varying position of the main Southern Ocean polar fronts has been calculated from a combination of gridded altimetric sea level anomalies and a new climatology of mean sea level constructed from historical data and ARGO T / S profiles.
Positions of 3 main Southern Ocean polar fronts of the ACC: (PF, SAF-N and SAF-S)
