Answer:

The Southern Ocean encircles Antarctica, and its area is usually defined as extending from the edge of the continent (and its ice shelves) to the position of the 'polar front' separating it from the surrounding Pacific, Indian and South Atlantic Oceans.

Answer:

Southern Ocean

Step-by-step explanation:

The Southern ocean is also referred to as the Antarctic ocean. It is the oceans below the latitude 60 degrees South. The currents in this oceans (Antarctic Circumpolar Current) circulate around Antarctica also shielding it from warmer waters from the equatorial regions. This keeps the Antartic region cold.
