Nature Climate Change, Published online: 17 November 2025; doi:10.1038/s41558-025-02478-9Climate change is altering the strength and position of Southern Ocean westerly winds but the ocean transport is stable. Here the authors use sea surface height to show that a poleward shift of the northern boundary and changing dynamics maintain the circumpolar transport.
