Meyers, G. (1980). Do Sverdrup transports account for the pacific north equatorial countercurrent?. Journal of Geophysical Research 85: doi: 10.1029/JC085iC02p01073. issn: 0148-0227.

Poleward and equatorward geostrophic transports calculated from density are nearly equal to Sverdrup transports calculated from the curl of the wind stress in the North and South Pacific subtropical gyres. But the Sverdrup transports do not account for the Pacific North Equatorial Countercurrent.
