Fig. 5.2.5a--i!. Crossgyre solution of Schopp and Arhan (1986) in which flow in layer 3 crosses the
intergyre boundary moving northward. a Streamlines of the flow in the upper layer. The "inverted
V" in the subpolar gyre shows the outcrop line of layer 3 as determined by the solution. b Lower
layer streamlines and the flow leaving the subtropical gyre across the window. c Zonal section of the
two layers in the subpolar gyre showing the zonal position of the outcrop line. d Same zonal section
on the intergyre boundary. e Zonal section in the subtropical gyre. Numbers on the contours are in
meters
