drags along the water
|
|
|
immediately beneath it but
|
|
at a somewhat slower
|
|
|
speed, and this layer is also
|
|
deflected to the right under
|
|
the influence of the Coriolis
|
|
|
force. The result is a
|
|
spiraling pattern in the
|
|
|
current direction with ever
|
|
decreasing current speeds
|
|
with depth. The net
|
|
transport
of water is to the
|
|
right of
the wind.
