the current is narrower, the west boundary is located farther offshore 
throughout its length, and the northern limit appears farthest south 
between 35° and 36°S as shown in Figure 15. The constancy of the 
current is somewhat greater, with about 70 percent of the observations 
prevailing north-northeast, but the mean speed is 0.6 knot, 0.2 knot 
lower than that during July and August. Maximum speed during January 
and February is about 1.5 knots.
