  abstract = {{G}eostrophic alongshore velocity data from a glider repetitive section off the coast of {P}eru (14 degrees {S}) are used to study the cross-shore structure and temporal variability of the {P}eru current system during a 5 week period in {A}pril-{M}ay 2010. {B}esides providing substantial information on the surface frontal jet associated with the {P}eru {C}oastal {C}urrent and the surfacing {P}eru-{C}hile {U}ndercurrent that flows poleward trapped on the continental shelf and slope, the glider data reveal the presence of an intense deep equatorward current, which transports up to approximate to 2.5 {S}v. {T}he dynamics of this current are investigated using an eddy-resolving regional model. {T}he variability of the vertically sheared alongshore flow is shown to be related to the passage of a poleward propagating coastal-trapped wave likely of equatorial origin. {S}olutions from a two-dimensional, linear, coastal wave model suggest that the alongshore current observed vertical structure is associated with the second and third baroclinic modes of the coastal-trapped wave.},
