A swirling vortex.

The distribution of the North Atlantic Subpolar Gyre shown above the North Atlantic Gyre to the South.

A circular or spiral motion; also, a circle described by a moving body; a revolution, a turn.

The normalized stream function ψ {\displaystyle \psi } (right) computed using Munk's boundary layer solution in a rectangular, flat-bottomed ocean gyre on a beta plane in the northern hemisphere centered at 30°N with horizontal length scale L {\displaystyle L} . The applied winds τ {\displaystyle \tau } (left) are sinusoidal, which is an approximation of the typical winds driving a subtropical gyre. Flow is along streamlines (black dotted lines) and the stream function is negative throughout the gyre, indicating the gyre is rotating clockwise. The distance between streamlines is inversely proportional to the flow speed – note the much closer streamlines on the west side of the basin, indicating western intensification of the gyre.

(oceanography) An ocean current caused by wind which moves in a circular manner, especially one that is large-scale and observed in a major ocean.
