1. You are looking down at the ocean's surface (north towards the top of the page). Measurements have been made at four points of an eddy (A, B, C and D) as shown above. The eddy is 30 km across (distance from A to B and C to D), and the total water depth is 4.5 km. The center of the ring is located at 49°N. Velocities are as follows: A) 1.2 m/s to the north B) -0.5 m/s to the south C) 1 m/s to the east D) 0.7 m/s to the east What is the magnitude and direction of the vertical velocity at the bottom of the 58 m deep mixed layer? m/s. 1.
