On The Validity Of The Dynamic Topographic Method For The De Termination Of Ocean Current Trajectories

---

In a previously published statement (Parr 1937, b) the writer has listed
ihe main reasons why, in the present state of our knowledge of the actual as
distinct from the ideal dynamics of ocean currents, he feels inclined to take
greater confidence in the evidence of the actual paths of How obtained from
a study of the identifying properties of the water masses, than in the con
clusions reached by present efforts to deduce the trajectories of motion from
hydrodynamic calculations and considerations. In this article a further
elaboration and elucidation of these objections against the unrestricted use
of dynamic methods for the determination of ocean current trajectories
will be attempted, while suggestion for obtaining a presumably closer ap
proach to an accurate presentation of How through isopycnic analysis by
means of identifying properties will be presented in the next article in this
issue.
