  abstract = {{S}alpa thompsoni is an important grazer in the {S}outhern {O}cean. {T}heir abundance in the western {A}ntarctic {P}eninsula is highly variable, varying by up to 5000-fold inter-annually. {H}ere, we use a particle-tracking model to simulate the potential dispersal of salp populations from a source location in the {A}ntarctic {C}ircumpolar {C}urrent ({ACC}) to the {P}almer {L}ong {T}erm {E}cological {R}esearch ({PAL} {LTER}) study area. {T}racking simulations are run from 1998 to 2015, and compared against both a stationary salp population model simulated at the {PAL} {LTER} study area and observations from the {PAL} {LTER} program. {T}he tracking simulation was able to recreate closely the long-term trend and the higher abundances at the slope stations. {T}he higher abundances observed at slope stations are likely due to the advection of salp populations from a source location in the {ACC}, highlighting the significant role of water mass circulation in the distribution and abundance of {S}outhern {O}cean salp populations.},
