A team of British and Australian scientists has discovered an important method of how carbon is drawn down from the surface of the Southern Ocean to the deep waters beneath. Winds, currents and massive whirlpools that carry warm and cold water around the ocean—eddies—create localized pathways or funnels for carbon to be stored. In 2002, 80 floats were deployed in the Southern Ocean to collect information on the temperature and salinity.
