'''Ekman transport''', named for [[Vagn Walfrid Ekman]], is the natural process by which wind causes movement of water near the ocean surface. Each layer of water in the ocean drags with it the layer beneath. Thus the movement of each layer of water is affected by the movement of the layer above, or below in the case of a frictional bottom boundary layer. | '''Ekman transport''', named for [[Vagn Walfrid Ekman]], is the natural process by which wind causes movement of water near the ocean surface.
