Centres of upwelling. The three curves illustrate the mean surface temperature of the current along its path; they represent three zones parallel to the coast at <5 miles, 5-20 miles and 20-100 miles from it. Above the curves, the two anticyclonic swirls off Peru are shown diagrammatically, their points of con- vergence and divergence corresponding to the peaks and the dips in the curves. Equivalent swirls are postulated off the Chilean coast. Below the curves, the four centres of upwelling are identified with the regions recognized by Schott. The curves represent a combination of the data given in Appendix VI and Fig. 34. Temperature records at greater distances than 100 miles are given as ringed dots.
