The retroflection of the Faroe Current into the Faroe‐Shetland Channel ...
No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author. The Faroe Current (FC) flows eastward north of the Faroes, but when it reaches the northeastern corner of the Faroe Plateau a part of it is retroflected back into the Faroe Shetland Channel (FSC). Here Mean Sea Level Anomaly (MSLA)...
