Antarctic bottom water is colder than either the Antarctic intermediate water or the Atlantic deep water.
The North Atlantic bottom water doesn't flow far enough south to intermix with the Southern Ocean.
The Antarctic Bottom Water, North Atlantic Deep Water, and Antarctic Intermediate Water are three density currents that form in polar regions.
Antarctic bottom water of the Southern Ocean is the coldest water on earth. Cold water is always found at the bottom of any combination of water temperatures.
The arrangement of water masses in the southern Atlantic Ocean from the surface to the bottom is Antarctic Intermediate water, north Atlantic deep water, and the Antarctic bottom water. The location where water flow uninterrupted between the Pacific, the Atlantic, and the Indian Oceans is in the southern ocean.
When the North Atlantic ocean meets the Antarctic bottom water Hurricanes form(:
Yes, Atlantic deep water is warmer and less dense than the Antarctic bottom water, so it flows on top.

North of the Antarctic circle is basically what you see on the bottom of flat maps. The waters are called the South Pacific, the South Indian and the South Atlantic oceans.
Antarctic Bottom Water can only travel north.
The sub-Antarctic is a region north of the Antarctic Circle in the South Atlantic, the South Pacific and in the South India oceans.
The oceans of the world are the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, Southern, and Arctic Oceans. The Southern Ocean also is referred to as the Antarctic Ocean.
There are seven oceans: The North Atlantic, South Atlantic, North Pacific, South Pacific, Indian, Arctic and Antarctic (AKA Southern).
