Ship Drift Components: Means and Standard Deviations.
Abstract
Nearly four million ship drift reports from 1900 through 1972 have been summarized in squares of 5 degrees latitude x 10 degrees longitude for the world's oceans and separately in 5 degrees X 5 degrees squares for the North Pacific. The components of drift are averaged in each square for each of the four seasons and for the year (grand total). Additional charts show the standard deviation of the components and the number of reports.
