Here is a figure for the waters around Antarctica though: https://www.nationalgeographic.org/encyclopedia/ocean-conveyor-belt/ https://www.nationalgeographic.org/encyclopedia/ocean-convey... >An estimated 35 million to 45 million cubic meters (between 1.2 billion and 1.6 billion cubic feet) of water per second are continually moved from the ocean bottom to the surface. That's over a huge area though and still no real idea of speed.
