East Indian Current

A northward flowing western boundary current found along the east coast of southern India from February to August. Its speed is consistently above 0. 5 m s−1, reaching a maximum of 0. 7–1. 0 m s−1 in May and June. The current is remarkable for its independence of the monsoon cycle; during February– April (the late Northeast Monsoon season) it runs into the wind. See also East Indian winter jet.
