In addition to being affected by land masses, the motion of ocean surface currents mirrors the major atmospheric circulation gyres. Therefore, the northern and southern equatorial currents of both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceanic gyres, along with the intervening equatorial counter-current ________________.
