Atlantic Equatorial Current Variability

Atlantic Equatorial Current Variability is a geophysical phenomenon denoting the temporal fluctuations in the strength, position, and structure of the zonal surface currents within the equatorial Atlantic Ocean, driven by variations in wind stress, thermocline depth, and interhemispheric forcing, and distinguished from broader oceanic variability by its confinement to the equatorial waveguide and its responsiveness to both local and remote atmospheric forcing.
