✦ Synopsis

The surface drift current speed and direction are defined using the resistance laws for turbulent Ekman boundary layers. Stratification conditions that coincide in the atmospheric and oceanic boundary layers yield approximate formulas whereby the drift current and geostrophic wind directions coincide and the geostrophic wind factor k is equal to the square root of the air and water density ratio. The theoretical estimates of k are compared with available experimental data.
