Abstract
    A series of satellite-tracked buoys was deployed in Rockall Trough during the period May 1983-January 1984 to investigate the circulation near the surface. Currents near steep topography were strong and tended to follow depth contours, as illustrated by a northeastward flow over the eastern slope of the Faroe-Shetland Channel and by a branching into the Norwegian Trench from northward-flowing Atlantic water. In Rockall Trough, a general northeastward drift was weak and was obscured by smallscale features of the flow, particularly eddies which were found near both the Anton Dohrn seamount area and Porcupine Bank.
