Direct current measurements are scarce, but available GEK measurements ( Fig. 4) support the picture of equator- ward flow. However, it is more satisfactory to speak of a prevailing equatorward component, since both the direct measurements and the dynamic charts indicate the presence of numerous eddies and other irregularities of Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Hill, M.
