the tendency of Southern Ocean eddy-driven circulation to offset changes in wind-driven Ekman overturning, damping the residual circulation response.

In physical oceanography, eddy compensation refers to the tendency of Southern Ocean eddy-driven circulation to offset changes in wind-driven Ekman overturning, damping the residual circulation response. This meaning comes from Hallberg (2006) in Journal of Physical Oceanography.[1]
