  The Brazil Current
The Brazil current is the western boundary current of the South Atlantic subtropical gyre.
The Brazil Current is a weak western boundary current carrying warm subtropical water, which runs south along the coast of Brazil from about 9°S to about 38°S and is generally confined to the upper 600m of the water column.
As the Brazil Current flows south of 24°S, its flow intensifies by about 5% per 100km, which is similar to the growth rate in the Gulf Stream, although transport values in the BC are considerably less (Peterson and Stramma, 1991).

As a result of the process of the countrys formation, Brazil has a rich influence for different time periods and ethnicitys which can clearly be seen in the aforementioned film, O Quatrilho.

 Ocean Current and Wave Motion near Trindade Island
In this case the wind circulation down the Brazil coast tracks the current to some degree, but obviously the streaming of the sea current by the coast is an overwhelming constraint not shared by the wind, and thus the wind-wave coupling is weakened.
For these reasons the Brazil Current vector in the Trindade region has become at least partly decoupled from the wind, and the net current at Trindade is some tens of degrees to the left of the expected Eckman transport due to the local wind.
It is true that the deeper and faster western boundary currents, of which the Brazil Current is one, are said to be especially prone to meandering, sometimes hundreds of kilometers from their average positions, and their shifts also give rise to transient eddies and ring currents.

The Brazil Current in the northern region is shallow and closely confined to the continental shelf.
The Malvinas Current is a branch of the Southern Circumpolar Current, and flows nothward along the continental shelf of Argentina until it interacts with the Brazil Current.
At this time, the collision of the two currents creates a convergence zone that is hundreds of miles long, with the warm Brazil Current flowing south along the coast of South America, and the cold Malvinas flowing north and then turning to the east.

In the annual cycle, the frontal motions appear to be closely related to fluctuations in the baroclinic transport of the Brazil Current and are only influenced by the Malvinas Current when the Brazil Current transport is very small.
