Western boundary currents resulted in an anti-cyclonic subtropical North Panthalassa gyre at mid-latitudes and a meridional anti-cyclonic circulation centred on 20�N.

One of these boundary currents resides along the sloping edge of the Lincoln Sea shelf, between the base and the shelf break at approximately 1600 m.

This work, based on laboratory studies, predated the discovery of such boundary currents, and remains one of the great triumphs of theoretical physical oceanography.
24.
The AMOC is calculated on the basis of the directly measured boundary currents, the geostrophic currents and the Ekman transports estimated from the surface wind stress.
25.
Equatorwards western boundary currents occur in tropical and polar locations, e . g . the East Greenland and Labrador currents, in the Atlantic and the Oyashio.
26.
His work contributed in advancing knowledge on ocean circulation and climate, boundary currents, oceanic fronts, flow through straits, mixing processes, and internal waves.
27.
This is the highest volumetric inflow to the Arctic Ocean, equalling about 10 times that of the Pacific inflow, and it creates the Arctic Ocean Boundary Current.
28.
Measurements reveal that this undercurrent shares comparable features to that found in the Beaufort Sea, whose boundary currents are responsible for large-scale advection within the Arctic circulation.

South America sticking out further toward the poles than any other eastern boundary current bordering landmass probably helps . talk ) 18 : 39, 16 September 2009 ( UTC)

The Agulhas Current, the western boundary current of the Indian Ocean, retroflects abruptly into the Indian Ocean south-west of South Africa and becomes the Agulhas Return Current.
