Brains found in Amundsen Sea (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sense

'brains' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'in amundsen sea' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'SENSE' is hidden in the letters of 'amundsen sea'.

'found' is the link.

(Other definitions for sense that I've seen before include "Perceive, detect" , "Be vaguely aware of" , "Feel intuitively" , "Hearing maybe" , "Perceive; meaning" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
