According to some descriptions, the gyre is centered near 4°E, 13°S, has a northern limb of eastward-flowing South Equatorial Countercurrernt and an eastern limb of poleward-flowing coastal Angola Current. It therefore appears to be eastern-intensified, a curious situation in view of the dynamics thought to govern motion in large-scale gyres.

The Lagrangian calculations show that: (1) surface flow is the primary factor influencing the final location of the embryo-larva particle; and (2) timing of krill spawning affects the eventual position of the feeding larvae. Seasonal changes in the wind stress field result in variability in direction and velocity of surface currents, which affects the embryo-larva trajectories. Conditions favourable for the transport of larvae to Bransfield Strait occur early in the spawning season. East of the Antarctic Peninsula larvae have a greater probability of entering Bransfield Strait if the krill embryos are released in mid-summer, January to February. Embryos released to the north of the South Shetland Islands, west of 62°W are transported into Drake Passage. Embryos released to the north of the South Shetland Islands and east of Livingston Island are transported westward where they can eventually enter Bransfield Strait. Krill larvae also are transported into Bransfield Strait from the Bellingshausen and Weddell Seas.

This model combines laboratory measurements of temperature effects on developmental times, density and physiology of krill embryos and larvae and the observed water temperature structure in the Bransfield Strait-South Shetland Islands region. Simulations with observed vertical temperature profiles from this region show that embryos that develop at temperatures less than 0°C hatch relatively deep (≈1000 m) or hit the bottom before hatching. The presence of warm (1–2°C) Circumpolar Deep Water (CDW), between 200 and 700 m, results in hatching depths of about 700 m. The sinking rate pattern characteristic of the embryos of <em>Euphausia superba</em> retains the embryos in the CDW, where development is accelerated. Larval ascent rate through the CDW is rapid, so larvae reach the surface before metamorphosing into the first feeding stage, and have sufficient carbon reserves to drift at the surface for several weeks before needing to find food. These results suggest that the sinking rate pattern characteristic of embryos of Antarctic krill may be part of a reproductive strategy that evolved in response to the thermal structure of its environment. The complementary component of this reproductive strategy is the observed correlation between the distribution of krill schools containing reproducing individuals and the presence of CDW. With this reproductive strategy, the spawning regions of Antarctic krill are in areas where oceanic conditions enhance the probability of survival of its embryos and non-feeding larvae.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":81079,"journal":{"name":"Deep-sea research.

Three eddies were observed to develop in the winter of 1989/1990, subsequently named F90a, F90b and O90. F90a was an anticclonic eddy of radius 50–60 km, with a central core of mixed water of slope origin (from the slopes in the vicinity of Cap Ferret Canyon) and of volume ∼400 k<sup>3</sup>. In the eddt centre, the mixed core extended from ∼70 to ∼280 m. Measurements at sea showed minimal changes in the core characteristics of F90a (potential temperature, 12.95°C, salinity, 35.74 psu) with time, and remote sensing studies demonstrated that these slope water core eddies can maintain their identities for about a year. Rotation rates in the central core of F90a were about 3 days and values of normalized relative vorticity were about −0.5. Maximummean azimuthal velocities were about 30 cm s<sup>−1</sup> at a radius of 30 km. Hydrographic data showed that the presence of the core was felt to a depth of ∼1500m, resulting in an azimuthal transport of about 8 Sv. Both F90a and O90 moved westward across the deep (4800 m) Bay of Biscay, and the westward migration speed (2 cm s<sup>−1</sup>) seems in excess of simple theoretical estimates for the β-induced westward propagation speed (0.4 cm s<sup>−1</sup>) of anticyclonic eddies. If the latter figure is used for self-advection and the effects of topography and mutual influence are neglected, the observed westward movement suggests a clockwise mean circulation −2 cm s<sup>−1</sup>) for the oceanic water in the Bay of Biscay. By contrast, F90b remained nearly stationary near 4°W. Remote sensing studies indicate that the occurence of a 4°W eddy in the summer of any year miight be attributed to warm slope water inflow along the northern Spanish slope in the previous winter.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":81079,"journal":{"name":"Deep-sea research.
