A current in the Atlantic Ocean that brings water from the equator to the Artic Circle. It flows out of the Gulf of Mexico (hence its name), follows the east coast of the US, then turns northeast across the North Atlantic. It forms the North Atlantic Drift north of the Azores and continues to Europe.
