| Description |
English: A map of mean annual surface isotherms of the Atlantic Ocean. On the north-east and south-west sides they are deflected polewards by the warm North Atlantic Drift and Brazil Current; on the south-east and north west sides equatorwards by the cold Labrador and Benguela Currents. Note the markedly different latitudes of the same isotherms east and west of South America and Africa; also the effect of the Falkland Current against the Brazil Current. |
