It has long been known that the Gulf Stream meanders laterally along the whole of the South Atlantic Bight (the continental margin between Capes Canaveral and Hatteras), but a quasi-permanent deflection of the Gulf Stream has recently been postulated offshore of Charleston, South Carolina (Pashuk and Maul, 1973). This supposition is supported by hydrographic data, nutrient data and remotely sensed imagery of the sea surface topography.
