A number of laboratory experiments are described in which water with a curved upper surface in a rotating basin exhibited prograde flows when stirred by stirrers which put no azimuthal torque upon the fluid. I t is suggested that the flows were generated by Reynolds stresses of the circulating fluid, and that this is a general consequence of circulations on a 8-plane. This is reinforced by an analogy between the equations of the moving flame experiment and the equations of flow on a 8-plane. Implications upon atmospheric and oceanic flows are mentioned.
