In 1973 a large collaborative (mainly U.S., U.K.) program, MODE-I, produced synoptic charts for an area of the NW Atlantic and confirmed the existence of an open ocean eddy field and established its characteristics.

Measurements from RIV Aries in 1959/60, using the then newly developed neutrally buoyant floats, indicated the main characteristics of the eddies in the deep ocean of the NW Atlantic while a series of Soviet moored current-meter arrays culminated, in POLYGON1970, in the explicit mapping of an energetic anticyclonic eddy in the tropical NE Atlantic. The existence of such eddies was suspected by navigators more than a century ago and confirmed by the world of C.O'D. Many types of eddies with somewhat different scales and characteristics have been identified.

A typical midocean horizontal scale is 100 km and a time scale is 100 days: these mesoscale eddies have swirl speeds of order 10 cm s -1 which are usually considerably greater than the long-term average flow. Nated by so-called synoptic or meso-scale eddies, rotating about nearly vertical axes and extending throughout the water column. It is now well known that the mid-ocean flow is almost everywhere domi.
