Seal Takes Ocean Heat Transport Data to New Depths

The Global Warming Hoax (a.k.a. Climate Change) exposed once more!

"The Antarctic Circumpolar Current flows in a loop around Antarctica, connecting the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian oceans. It is one of the most significant ocean currents in our climate system because it facilitates the exchange of heat and other properties among the oceans it links. But how the current transfers heat, particularly vertically from the top layer of the ocean to the bottom layers and vice versa, is still not fully understood. This current is very turbulent, producing eddies—swirling vortices of water similar to storms in the atmosphere—between 30 to 125 miles (50 to 200 kilometers) in diameter. It also spans some 13,000 miles (21,000 kilometers) through an especially remote and inhospitable part of the world, making it one of the most difficult currents for scientists ... to observe and measure.

Not fully understood is probably an exaggeration! Perhaps little understood would be more honest? I bet it is also not the only such current (e.g.  that is "not fully understood"!
