  abstract = {{T}he zonal equatorial circulation of the upper 700 m in the central tropical {A}tlantic is studied based on 11 cross-equatorial ship sections taken at 23-29 degrees {W} during 1999 to 2005 and on data from a pair of moored {A}coustic {D}oppler current profilers deployed on the equator at 23 degrees {W} during {F}ebruary 2004 to {M}ay 2005. {T}he observations on the equator reveal the existence of two mean westward cores of the {E}quatorial {I}ntermediate {C}urrent below the {E}quatorial {U}ndercurrent. {I}n contrast to the 2002 moored observations at the same position the intraseasonal variability during the mooring period is dominated by zonal instead of meridional velocity fluctuations.},
