基于潮流和波浪而产生的周期性流动以外的、比较固定的水流叫洋流。海水会经历几十年甚至数百年的时间在全世界的海域中循环,洋流指的是这种地球规模的海水循环的一部分。在洋流中,有像陆地上的河流一样幅度较窄而流速快的,也有幅度无限宽广而流速缓慢的,其大小、强度不能一概而论。以代表性的洋流之一——黑潮为例,在强流带时可达到2.5米/秒的速度,水流的路径、速度随季节和年代的不同都会发生很大变化。一般意义上的洋流,是在大海的表层流动(表层流),而深层的水流则较弱,速度在每秒几厘米以下,水流的结构也很复杂。
表层洋流的发生,首先是因为风。水面上一起风,由于风力作用,水层就被拖动。表层的水一动,因海水彼此之间存在摩擦力,下面的水层便接连不断地被拖动。实际上,洋流并非沿着风的方向前进。像洋流这种地球上的大规模运动通常要受到地球自转的影响,即要受到科里奥利力的作用。在北半球,运动物体所受科里奥利力在其运动方向垂直的右方起作用。这样,海水就偏离了风力作用的方向,在北半球、表层洋流沿偏离风向约四五度的右方流动。
海面并不是完全水平的,温度、盐分、海水密度等多种因素使得海面凹凸不平。笼统来说,水温高的部分密度小,水面就高。水流理应从高处向低处流,但是由于科里奥利力的作用,高处的水流沿偏右的方向流动,这称为地衡流。海水的盐分等因素也可造成海水密度不同。海水中溶入了各种各样的物质,其中钠和卤素占绝大多数。另外,也有镁、钾、钙等盐类。盐分浓度会随年蒸发量、降水量而发生变化。此外,有河流等大陆水流注入的沿岸海域盐分较少,这些都影响洋流的流向。

Where there are disasters,according to Richard Oliver,director of the gap companies’ umbrella organisation,the Year Out Group,it is usually because of poor planning.That can be the fault of the company or of the student,he says,but the best insurance is thoughtful preparation.“When people get it wrong,it is usually medical or,especially among girls,it is that they have not been away from home before or because expectation does not match reality.”
The point of a gap year is that it should be the time when the school leaver gets to do the thing that he or she fancies.Kids don’t mature if mum and dad decide how they are going to mature.If the 18-year-old’s way of maturing is to slob out on Hampstead Heath soaking up sunshine or spending a year working with fishermen in Cornwall,then that s what will be productive for that person.The consensus,however,is that some structure is an advantage and that the prime mover needs to be the student.
The 18-year-old who was dispatched by his parents at two weeks’notice to Canada to learn to be a snowboarding instructor at a cost of £5,800,probably came back with little more than a hangover.The 18-year-old on the same package who worked for his fare and spent the rest of his year instructing in resorts from New Zealand to Switzerland,and came back to apply for university,is the positive counterbalance.

Gap years are fashionable,as is reflected in the huge growth in the number of charities and private companies offering them.Pictures of Prince William toiling in Chile have helped,but the trend has been gathering steam for a decade.The range of gap packages starts with backpacking,includes working with charities,building hospitals and schools and,very commonly,working as a language assistant, teaching English.With this trend,however,comes a danger.Once parents feel that a well-structured year is essential to their would be undergraduate s progress to a better university,a good degree,an impressive CV and well paid employment,as the gap companies blurbs suggest it might be,then parents will start organising—and paying for—the gaps.

When Rupert Murdoch sees beams of light in the American advertising market,it is not necessarily time to reach for the sunglasses.Last October,when the impact of September 11th was only beginning to tell,the boss of NewsCorp,a media group,had already identified “strong rays of sunshine”.With ad sales still languishing,Mr.Murdoch declared last month that “there are some hints of a modest upswing in the U.S. advertising markets.”His early optimism turned out to be misplaced.Now,however,other industry observers are beginning to agree with him.
Advertising usually exaggerates the economic cycle:falling sharply and early in a downturn,and rebounding strongly once the economy has begun to recover.This is because most managers prefer to trim their ad budgets rather than their payrolls,and restore such spending only once they feel sure that things are looking up.Last year,America’s ad market shrank by 9.8%,according to CMR,a research firm. Although ad spending has not yet recovered across all media,some analysts now expect overall ad spending to start to grow in the third quarter.
The signs of improvement are patchy,however.Ad spending on radio and television seems to be inching up—advertising on American national radio was up 2% in January on the same period last year,according to Aegis—while spending on magazines and newspapers is still weak.Even within any one market,there are huge differences;just pick up a copy of one of the now-slimline high-tech magazines that once bulged with ads,and compare it with the hefty celebrity or women’s titles.Advertisers in some categories,such as the travel industry,are still reluctant to buy space or airtime,while others,such as the car and movie businesses,have been bolder.
The winter Olympics,held last month in Salt Lake City,has also distorted the spending on broadcast advertising in the first quarter.
Nonetheless,there is an underlying pattern.One measure is the booking of ad spots for national brands on local television.By early March,according to Mr.Westerfield’s analysis,such bookings were growing fast across eight out of the top ten advertising sectors,led by the financial and motor industries.UBS Warburg now expects the “upfront” market,which starts in May when advertisers book advance ad spots on the TV networks for the new season in September,to be up 4% on last year.On some estimates,even online advertising could pick up by the end of the year.
