The transfer of momentum between the atmosphere and oceanic motions affected by the Earth's rotation occurs through the thin surface Ekman layer. The exchange depends on the surface wind stress, which produces the Ekman pumping of fluid to the ocean upper layer. The Ekman pumping mainly depends on: (i) the curl of the wind stress and (ii) the advec...
