The ocean comprising the southern reaches of the Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian Oceans, surrounding the Antarctic continent. It is measured sometimes from the Antarctic Circle, sometimes from the northern limit of floating ice, a line varying from 47° to 61°S. (area by the latter measure: 5,700,000 square miles). Greatest sounded depth: 4,000 fathoms.  4, record 2, English, - Antarctic%20Ocean

The Southern Ocean, also known as the Great Southern Ocean, the Antarctic Ocean and the South Polar Ocean, comprises the southernmost waters of the World Ocean south of 60° S latitude. The International Hydrographic Organization has designated the Southern Ocean as an oceanic division encircling Antarctica. Geographers disagree on the Southern Ocean's northern boundary or even its existence, sometimes considering the waters part of the South Pacific, South Atlantic, and Indian Oceans instead. Some scientists consider the Antarctic Convergence, an ocean zone which fluctuates seasonally, as separating the Southern Ocean from other oceans, rather than 60° S. This ocean zone forms from the convergence of two circumpolar currents, one easterly flowing and one westerly flowing. The International Hydrographic Organization(IHO) regards the Southern Ocean as the fourth-largest of the five principal oceanic divisions and the latest-defined one.  3, record 2, English, - Antarctic%20Ocean

L'océan Austral ou océan Antarctique ou océan glacial Antarctique est l'étendue d'eau qui entoure l'Antarctique. C'est en surface le quatrième océan, et le dernier défini, puisque c'est une décision de l'Organisation hydrographique internationale (OHI) qui a accepté en 2000 le nom d'océan Austral, utilisé depuis longtemps par les marins (on employait aussi «océan Antarctique»).

El océano Antártico se extiende desde la costa antártica hasta los 60° S, límite convencional con el océano Atlántico, el océano Pacífico y el océano Índico. Es el penúltimo océano en extensión (sólo el océano Ártico es más pequeño). Formalmente su extensión fue definida por la Organización Hidrográfica Internacional en el año 2000 y coincide con los límites fijados por el Tratado Antártico. El océano Antártico junto al Ártico, son los únicos en circundar el globo de forma completa. Rodea completamente a la Antártida. Tiene una superficie de 20.327.000 km², una cifra que comprende a los mares periféricos: el Mar de Amundsen, el Mar de Bellingshausen, parte del Pasaje de Drake, el Mar de Ross y el Mar de Weddell.  3, record 2, Spanish, - oc%C3%A9ano%20Ant%C3%A1rtico
