Heat Transport by Currents Across 25{degrees}N Latitude in the Atlantic Ocean.

The heat transported by currents across 25 degrees N in the Atlantic Ocean is estimated from oceanographic measurements to be 1.1 x 10(15) watts northward. This figure agrees, within estimated error, with the value obtained from charts of energy exchange between ocean and atmosphere but is smaller by a factor of 2 than the recent value derived from satellite radiation measurements.
