The Southern Ocean is now being recognized, along with the traditional four of the Atlantic, Pacific, Indian, and Arctic Oceans.
https://www.nbcnews.com/science/science-news/national-geographic-adds-5th-ocean-world-map-n1270318 National Geographic announced Tuesday that it is officially recognizing the body of water surrounding the Antarctic as the Earth's fifth ocean: the Southern Ocean. https://mobile.twitter.com/NatGeo/status/1402276146671128591 --- Live action Hungry Hungry Hippos though, now that was a sport. ~Aeon Azuran ...

Although as a kid, I always thought it was weird that the north has the Arctic Ocean but the south didnt have anything. Although Id have thought it would be named the Antarctic Ocean.

I'm fairly certain the southern ocean has been at least somewhat recognized for a long time, it's just that now Nat Geo is recognizing it as well. Tbh, I wouldn't be surprised if they recognized it previously but they randomly decided to start making a big deal about it.

It's because Part of me thinks National Geographic is recognizing the Southern Ocean now so they can use it as (one of several) measuring sticks when discussing climate change, as the Southern Ocean stands to expand a good deal as Antarctica shrinks. --- Live action Hungry Hungry Hippos though, now that was a sport. ~Aeon Azuran ...

Antarctica isn't a giant land mass it's all ice.I know theres various approximations as to what Antarctica would look like if you removed the ice, but I dont think any of the ones Ive seen show it as an archipelago.
