Notes: The Antarctic Circumpolar Current, or West Wind Drift, is the world's strongest ocean current, flowing unimpeded around Antarctica in the Southern Ocean. The Transpolar Drift Stream is a significant Arctic Ocean current that moves sea ice from the East Siberian and Laptev Seas to the Fram Strait. The Beaufort Gyre, also in the Arctic Ocean, has become a repository for older ice.
