Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Evidence confirms that wind stress and ocean currents, such as the East Australian Current, interact to create complex circulation and eddy patterns in the Tasman Sea.

The analysis

The retrieved papers specifically discuss the East Australian Current, wind stress variability, eddy shedding, and complex regional circulation patterns in the Tasman Sea, strongly supporting the claim.
