Location and dynamics of the Antarctic Polar Front from satellite sea surface temperature data

The location of the Antarctic Polar Front (PF) was mapped over a 7‐year period (1987–1993) within images of satellite‐derived sea surface temperature. The mean path of the PF is strongly steered by the topographic features of the Southern Ocean. The topography places vorticity constraints on the dyn...
