Question: How cold is the Antarctic Ocean??
Answer:
How cold is the Antarctic Ocean?
The Antarctic bottom water (AABW) is a type of water mass in the Southern Ocean surrounding Antarctica with temperatures ranging from −0.8 to 2°C (35°F), salinities from 34.6 to 34.7psu. Being the densest water mass of the oceans, AABW is found to occupy the depth range below 4000m of all ocean basins that have a connection to the Southern Ocean at that level.[1]
