Origin, dynamics and evolution of ocean garbage patches from observed surface drifters (2012, result): “…can be seen even more clearly in the South Atlantic and South Indian regions: the two subtropical gyres in these basins span the so-called ‘super-gyre’ (Speich et al 2007), and our results provide direct observational evidence that this super-gyre also manifests in ocean surface flow (figure 3(b)).”
Characteristics of the ocean simulations in the Max Planck Institute Ocean Model (MPIOM) the ocean component of the MPI‐Earth system model (2013, background): “In the LR setup, the AC largely continues into the Atlantic and feeds a southern hemisphere ‘‘supergyre’’ [e.g., Speich et al., 2007].”
