The North Icelandic Irminger Current is a continuation of the Gulf Stream. It branches off and flows to the north of Iceland where it divides further and interacts with coastal and polar water. Abbrevations: EGC—East Greenland Current, IC—Irminger Current, NIIC—North Icelandic Irminger Current, NIJ—North Icelandic Jet. Solid lines: surface currents, dotted lines: deep currents. The map was produced with “ggOceanMaps” [184] by using [123] for ocean currents
