Wind stress and wind stress curl over the California current
Abstract
Distributions of A. Wind stress curl, B. Surface currents, and C. Anchovy subpopulations.Wind stress curl is shown for September.Units are dyne cm~^? per 100 km.The contour interval is 0.25 dyne cm per 100 km.Negative values are shaded.The winter distribution of surface currents is depicted in terms of 2 -degree summarizations of ship drift data.Vector symbols are scaled according to the key on the chart.Units are cm sec~^.Large arrows suggest the split cyclonic circulation which develops off southern California and Baja California.The winter distributions of the three subpopulations of northern anchovy are shown in the bottom figure .M. Husby provided invaluable advice and many stimulating discussions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
