The presence of the Drake Passageway allows the three main ocean basins (Atlantic, Pacific and Southern) to be connected via the Antarctic Circumpolar current (ACC), the strongest oceanic current, with an estimated transport of 100–150 Sv (Sverdrups, million m 3 /s). This flow is the only large-scale exchange occurring between the global ...
