Question 37Navigation General
70% to passSolid green arrows on the main body of a pilot chart indicate _______________.
The correct answer is C) prevailing ocean current directions. Solid green arrows on the main body of a pilot chart indicate the prevailing ocean current directions in that area. This is based on the standard conventions used in pilot charts, which are navigational charts that provide information about winds, currents, and other oceanic conditions. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not accurately represent the meaning of the solid green arrows on a pilot chart. Option A refers to surface current flow, which is different from the prevailing ocean current directions shown by the arrows. Option B is about wind directions, which are not indicated by the solid green arrows. Option D is about great circle routes, which are not directly related to the information conveyed by the solid green arrows on the pilot chart.
