“[Here is a] climatology near-surface currents and temperatures for the world, at monthly and one-quarter degree resolution, derived from satellite-tracked surface drifting buoy observations.
Animations of these currents are available [also at https://www.aoml.noaa.gov/phod/gdp/animations.php].
Maps of these currents in various regions can be seen on the Ocean Surface Currents web site [https://oceancurrents.rsmas.miami.edu/atlantic/img_gosv_seasonal.php]…”
