Abstract The periods, wavelengths, and amplitudes of meanders in equatorial flows and particle trajectories therein are computed by using the inertial motion equations on the beta plane and a sphere. Data from the fifth voyage of the scientific-research vessel “Dmitrii Mendeleev” are presented, which indicate the asymmetry of the Cromwell flow relative to the equator and its possible meandering.
