Hello, hollee-ga; The Antarctic Circumpolar Current is also known as the "West Wind Drift." (This is stated in at least two of the articles below.) This page provides three maps of the current: "Antarctic Circumpolar Current" http://www.parks.tas.gov.au/fahan_mi_shipwrecks/infohut/acc.htm The above article is also available as a PDF document from http://www.parks.tas.gov.au/fahan_mi_shipwrecks/infohut/pdfs/acc.pdf This article has a plot of the current's location (though not quite as readable): http://oceancurrents.rsmas.miami.edu/atlantic/antarctic-cp.html From CSIRO Marine Research: http://www.marine.csiro.au/PressReleasesfolder/03releases/24jul03.htm Here is a pretty lengthy article with several maps and an explanation of why ocean currents form: GLACIER: Oceans- --Windcirculation http://www.glacier.rice.edu/oceans/4_windcirculation.html Search Strategy: Google Search: "west wind drift" ://www.google.com/search?q=%22west+wind+drift%22&btnG=Google+Search&hl=en&lr=&ie=ISO-8859-1 Google Search: "west wind drift" map ://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=%22west+wind+drift%22+map Google search: map antarctic circumpolar current ://www.google.com/search?q=map+antarctic+circumpolar+current Google Search: "antarctic circumpolar current" ://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=%22antarctic+circumpolar+current%22 I hope this helps.
