![The pressure blocks we have been examining can be used to model ocean currents and find relationships among water temperature, height of the ocean surface,
and ocean currents. The warm Gulf Stream Current forms the western arm of the North Atlantic subtropical gyre. Infrared sensors from Earth-orbiting satellites
provide SSTS of the Gulf Stream. The images in Figure 10A-5 and Figure 10A-6 were produced on 3 December 2020 and cover the Atlantic Ocean along the E
Coast of North America and the Gulf of Mexico.
