The great surface currents of the world, named and drawn along their real routes — warm currents carrying heat poleward (the Gulf Stream, Kuroshio, Agulhas) and cold currents returning cool water toward the equator (the Humboldt, California, Benguela), plus the Antarctic Circumpolar, the largest current on Earth. The authored, labelled companion to the live particle currents.
