Subpolar Eastern Currents Where the continents extend to sufficiently high latitudes, they form a barrier to the west-wind drift and cause some portion of the waters to turn poleward. These poleward currents form the eastern limbs of the subpolar gyres and are observed in the North and South Pacific and in the North Atlantic. They are similar to the subtropical eastern currents in that they are broad and.
