The time‐dependent flow of a broad current over a uniformly sloping sea bottom is considered. Simple wave motions are discussed, the establishment of a steady meander is analysed, the response to slow variations in the transport of the current is explored, and the general relationship of the path of the meandering current to initial (Cauchy) data is determined. The results are used in the design of an experiment in the Gulf Stream which was performed in the summer of 1969.
