根据对墨西哥湾流60年调查数据的重新分析，我提出斜坡水由两个不同的区域组成。第一，温暖的斜坡水，是一个很好的混合区之间的0和400米的深度接近墨西哥湾流;流动主要是向东。 第二个带拉布拉多斜坡水较深，紧贴大陆坡100米以下，在σt= 27.5附近最宽;混合较差，向西流动。 这两个区域之间的边界在形状和强度上有所不同，以应对墨西哥湾流和拉布拉多海流的变化。1973年11月在哈利法克斯以南的斜坡水域进行的观测，讨论了两个斜坡水域。特别是，运动的两个区域之间的边界进行了检查。
Based on a reanalysis of the data from the Gulf Stream ’60 survey I propose that the Slope Water is comprised of two distinct zones. The first, warm Slope Water, is a well-mixed zone found between 0 and 400 m depth close to the Gulf Stream; the flow is primarily eastward. The second zone, Labrador Slope Water, is deeper, clings to the continental slope below 100 m and is broadest near σt= 27.5; it is poorly mixed and flows to the west. The boundary between the two zones varies in shape and intensity in response to changes in the Gulf Stream and the Labrador Current. Observations made in the Slope Water region south of Halifax in November 1973 are discussed in terms of the two Slope Water zones. In particular, movements of the boundary between the two zones are examined.
