ENERGY INTERACTION OF THE JETS AND EDDIES OF ANTARCTIC CIRCUMPOLAR CURRENT IN THE NEAR-SURFACE LAYER OF THE SOUTHERN OCEAN

Kinetic energy six jets of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), and of synoptic eddies generated by these jets is studied in application to the near-surface layer of the Antarctic Circle on the base of the satellite altimeter data during 1993–2015. The main results of the study were as follows: a) prevalence of the energy of middle jet of the Subantarctic Current over energy of the rest ACC jets in the whole of the Antarctic Circle; b) five times excess of the mean energy of jets proper over the mean summary (cyclones plus anticyclones) energy of eddies; c) two times excess of mean energy of cyclonic eddies over energy of anticyclones.
