SECT. 3] EQUATORIAL CURRENT SYSTEMS 251 



well as the similarities in the circulation should be of some help in any critical 

 evaluation of a theory of oceanic circulation, just as a careful analysis of the 

 consequences of any theory under varying conditions should point the way to 

 the types of observation needed for verification.
