North Atlantic Gyre North Atlantic Gyre The North Atlantic Gyre, located in the Atlantic Ocean, is one of the five major oceanic gyres. It is a circular system of ocean currents that stretches across the North Atlantic from near the equator almost to Iceland, and from the east coast of North America to the west coasts of Europe and Africa. The currents that compose the North Atlantic Gyre include the Gulf Stream in the west, the North Atlantic Current in the north, the Canary Current in the east, and the Atlantic North Equatorial Current in the south. This gyre is particularly important for
Drift current through a square centimeter area perpendicular to the direction of flow. (i) Drift current density J, due to free electrons is given by: formula_1 (ii) Drift current density J, due to holes is given by: formula_2 Where: n - Number of free electrons per cubic centimeter. p - Number of holes per cubic centimeter formula_3 – Mobility of electrons in formula_4 formula_5 – Mobility of holes in formula_4 E – Applied Electric Field Intensity in V /cm q – Charge of an electron = 1.6 × 10 coulomb. Drift current In condensed matter physics and electrochemistry, drift current is the
