We just learned that an Ocean Gyre is a way that water flows around in all the oceans.
One of the ocean gyres in Antarctica is called the Weddell Gyre.
The Weddell Sea is the water by the Antarctic peninsula.
The water in this gyre mixes the super cold water right by Antarctica with the warmer southern Atlantic ocean water that is north of Antarctica.
