Abstract
A distinctive correlation between oxygen content and sigma- t has been shown to exist in the Sargasso Sea. Waters of the Caribbean Sea, Yucatan Channel and Straits of Florida are anomalously lower in oxygen. Similar oxygen anomalies along the supposed course of the Gulf Stream can be used to delineate its right-hand boundary and to trace water of southern origins to as far as 43°W. longitude. The distribution of oxygen anomalies across the Gulf Stream shows that water of southern origins is present in highly variable amounts, that it is present in the various currents and counter-currents, and that these currents are materially related and do not represent merely the transfer of momentum from southern sources.
