  abstract = {{C}urrent measurements taken in the equatorial zone at 170°{E} aboard the {R}.{V}. {C}oriolis reveal equatorial dynamics peculiar to the western {P}acific. {T}he west equatorial surface current has several speed cores on either side of the equator; the equatorial undercurrent has one speed core at 100 m and another at 200m; the {N}orth {E}quatorial {C}ountercurrent is connected with the equatorial indercurrent, which has two deep extensions on either side of the equator; beneath the equatorial undercurrent lies a weak west current which appears to reach a depth below 1000m. {T}he flows of these currents are very variable : the equatorial undercurrent may double its flow in 20 days.
