Caption: Map showing the tracks of drifters with transmitters and sea anchors (to lock them to the sea so that the wind won't blow them around) as they are carried in loops around an anticlockwise eddy ( a high -- see the paragraph above) that is itself being carried along. The + signs show successive noon positions.
