It is significant to note that north equatorial current flows as a continuous current in the north Pacific Ocean but there are seasonal variations in its northern and southern marginal areas.
The velocity of the current ranges between 12 and 18 nautical miles [22.22 km – 33.33 km] per day.
With the northward (northern summer) and southward (southern summer) migration of the sun this current moves northward and southward but it always remains to the north of equator.
