Fig. 1: The observed Mean Ocean topography estimated from a combination of satellite measurements and ocean drifters from Maximenko et al. (2009). Data, figure, and further details can be found here https://apdrc.soest.hawaii.edu/projects/DOT/. The pink arrows represent the dominant winds, while the blue arrows show the directions of the ocean current averaged over the full depths of the ocean.
