Preferred term

Southern Ocean  

Definition

  • THE GLOBAL OCEAN influences the Earth's climate by storing and transporting vast amounts of heat, moisture, and carbon dioxide. Huge quantities of carbon are cycled annually among the biosphere (forests, grasslands, and marine plankton), the atmosphere, and the oceans. [Source: Encyclopedia of Global Warming and Climate Change; Southern Ocean]
