Portugal Current

The Portugal Current is a weak warm water current that flows south-easterly towards the coast of Portugal. The current results from the movement of water east caused by the North Atlantic Drift.

Famous quotes containing the word current:

    What in fact have I achieved, however much it may seem? Bits and pieces ... trivialities. But here they won’t tolerate anything else, or anything more. If I wanted to take one step in advance of the current views and opinions of the day, that would put paid to any power I have. Do you know what we are ... those of us who count as pillars of society? We are society’s tools, neither more nor less.
    Henrik Ibsen (1828–1906)
