		In deriving the relationship, Sverdrup assumed that the flow is stationary, that lateral friction and molecular viscosity are small, and that turbulence near the sea surface can be described using an eddy viscosity.
		Sverdrup assumed: i) The internal flow in the ocean is geostrophic; ii) there is a uniform depth of no motion; and iii) Ekman's transport is correct.
		Sverdrup's relationship is so central to theories of the ocean circulation that almost all discussions assume it to be valid without any comment at all and proceed to calculate its consequences for higher-order dynamics...

		Harald Ulrik Sverdrup was born in Norway in November 1888.
		Under Sverdrup, SIO was transformed into a modern oceanographic institution, initially concentrating on study of the California Current and the Gulf of California.
		Inspired during his SIO years to unite oceanic physics and biology, Sverdrup quantified the concept of "critical depth" (formulated earlier by the Norwegian H. Gran and the American G. Riley) in 1953, explaining the onset of the spring phytoplankton bloom in newly stratified water columns.

	Harald Sverdrup
		Harald Ulrik Sverdrup (November 1888-August 1957) was a Norwegian oceanographer and meteorologist who made a number of important theoretical discoveries in the field.
		Having first worked in Bergen and Leipzig he was involved in the North Polar expedition of Roald Amundsen between 1917 and 1925, before taking the chair in meteorolgy at Bergen, where his primary interest slowly became oceanography.
		He was made director of California's Scripps Institute of Oceanography[?] (SIO) in 1936, initially for 3 years but the intervention of World War II meant he held the post until 1948.

		Otto Sverdrup (pronounced sver´droop) was born on October 31, 1854 on farm named Hårstad near Bindal, Norway.
		Sverdrup is surprisingly little known outside his native country.
		An indication of the high esteem in which Sverdrup is held in Norway can be seen by the fact that Norwegian Air Shuttle has honoured their native son by painting a huge portrait of him on the tail of one of their Boeing 737-300 jets, registration LN-KKH (seen to the right).

		During an 1898-1902 Arctic expedition, Norwegian explorer Otto Sverdrup discovered three islands in what is now the Canadian territory of Nunavut.
		Having a Norwegian announce the discovery of new lands in Canada's ice-bound north was an embarrassment - Sverdrup was even pushing his own government to send patrols over to police the islands to demonstrate that they were "Norwegian".
		This was a complication that Canada did not want, so Sverdrup was paid $67,000, supposedly for his original maps and journals.

		A companion of Fridtjof Nansen on the voyage across Greenland in 1888 and on Nansen's later (1893-96) polar expedition, Sverdrup was leader of an arctic expedition (1898-1902) that attempted to reach the North Pole by way of Smith Sound but failed because of ice in Kennedy Channel.
		However, valuable topographical observations were made in N Greenland; the unknown western part of Ellesmere Island was explored and charted, and Axel Heiberg Island and other areas were discovered.
		His later arctic expeditions included a voyage to the Kara Sea in 1920 and a searching trip for the Italian explorer Umberto Nobile's Italia in 1928.
