The Falkland Current is a cold ocean current that flows northward along the eastern coast of South America, primarily along the continental shelf off the coast of Argentina. It originates from the Antarctic Circumpolar Current and is influenced by the cold waters of the South Atlantic Ocean. The Falkland Current plays a significant role in the regional marine ecosystem and climate. It contributes to the upwelling of nutrients, which supports rich marine biodiversity, including important fisheries.
