How to make an ocean

When it comes to understanding oceans, you need to start with the basics, says Tait.
"There's one world ocean and it's all interconnected," he notes.
 
"We're really talking about ocean regions, and there's traditionally been the four: Atlantic, Pacific, Indian and Arctic. But for many, many years, scientists and others have been using the term Southern Ocean to describe the physical region of the ocean around Antarctica."
So then, what makes the Southern Ocean different?
Tait breaks it down.
 
"You go from warmer waters in the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Oceans to very cold waters around Antarctica. And then the salinity goes down. There's a distinct fauna there, so minke whales, certain kinds of seals, penguins, fish and bird life are abundant in the Southern Ocean based on those environmental factors."
