in which the po.sition of the left side of the 

 warm core oscillates by about 10 miles (18.5 

 km.) on either side of the mean (dotted line, 

 fig. 1). The left boundary of the Gulf Stream 

 was not more than 10 miles right of its mean 

 position in any of the sections but was about 

 twice as far left in one section. 



The observations along transect I indicate 



that the oscillation of the left boundary of the 

 Gulf Stream and the width of the intermediate 

 zone were not directly interdependent. Forma- 

 tion of the intermediate zone did not neces- 

 .sarily dejiend on oscillation of the boundary- 

 oscillation may presumably occur when the 

 intermediate zone is nonexistent. Some bound- 

 arv oscillations, however, did .seem to be con-
