We mostly analyze and discuss available literature but also present some novel calculations using cruise data and the velocity fields from numerical re‐analysis data. We first examine and discuss the structure of the Gulf Nutrient Stream, the significance of boundary exchange, and the importance of epipycnal and diapycnal processes. We then move to explore the subtropical and remote pathways into the Gulf Nutrient Stream, including the effect of the returning limb of the global overturning circulation, and end up reviewing the concept of nutrient irrigation of the subpolar gyre and its relevance in the spring–fall maintenance of the spring bloom. We close the chapter with some thoughts on the role of streams in the Earth system, as the key conduit for recycling properties within any ocean subsystem while simultaneously connecting the different subsystems, hence bringing about the complexity of the living planet This research has been supported by the Spanish government through project VA-DE-RETRO (reference number CTM2014-56987-P). Ignasi VallèsCasanova and Dorleta Orúe-Echeverria have been supported by scholarships from the Spanish government, respectively from the FPI and FPU programs 2020-04-27T07:39:37Z 2020-04-27T07:39:37Z 2019-04 2020-04-27T07:39:38Z capítulo de libro http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_3248 isbn: 9781119428343 isbn: 9781119428428 Kuroshio Current: Physical, Biogeochemical and Ecosystem Dynamics 3: 23-50 (2019) Geophysical Monograph Series 243(3): 23-50 (2019) http://hdl.handle.net/10261/209130 10.1002/9781119428428.ch3 http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/501100003329 #PLACEHOLDER_PARENT_METADATA_VALUE# info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/MINECO/Plan Estatal de Investigación Científica y Técnica y de Innovación 2013-2016/CTM2014-56987-P Preprint https://doi.org/10.1002/9781119428428.ch3 Sí open American Geophysical Union
