Selected results based on the first deployment (duration was 298--324 days depending on specific location) of an array of 38 current-temperature meters on 10 moorings along 152¿E from 28¿N to 41¿N are discussed. Abyssal eddy kinetic energies along 152¿E near the Kuroshio Extension are a factor of 2 to possibly 5 lower than those previously observed at similar depths close to the energetic regions of the Gulf Stream. The thermocline kinetic energy frequency distribution at 28¿N, 152¿E is similar in shape to that observed at a site near 31¿N, 70¿W (but not 28¿N, 70¿W), although the total energy levels are quite different. However, the distance from the corresponding strong current regimes is nearly the same. The largest scale latitudinal distribution of the off-diagonal component of horizontal Reynolds' stress has the characteristic general shape, that is, negative to the south and positive to the north of the Gulf Stream or Kuroshio Extension or mid-latitude jet, at all depths for all longitudes where such data are available in both oceans, and in the numerical experiments examined.
