Per the Newsweek article:

"an erroneous press release from El Institut de Ciències del Mar about the June 30 study that allegedly included a flawed quote from study co-author Antonio Turiel regarding ocean circulation.

Turiel told Newsweek that the flawed quote was partly a result of mistranslation.

"Our original press note contained some wrong sentences, partly caused by mistranslation, partly caused by a wrong use of words on my side. That's the reason of the correction," he said.

Turiel added that the paper also found evidence that "isopycnals have shoaled, so effectively there is a change in the structure of Southern Ocean."

This doesn't indicate a change in direction for the current, Turial said, but that "it is likely that there is a change in the configuration of the currents.""
