Ocean currents flow near the equator from the east to west. Ocean currents flow near the poles from west to east.


Why do currents flow faster at the equator than at the polls?

Because the water is warmer at the equator than at the pole. The warmer ocean water is the faster the currents move and the colder the water is the slow the currents move.


What is the cause of surface currents?

The circulation of cold and warm water between the poles and the equator, and the rotation of the earth, cause ocean currents to flow.

Do warm currents flow toward the equator or away?


Describe the temperature of the currents that flow away from the equator and explain why they are this way?

Heating by the sun near the equator makes the water there warm. In the polar regions, the water is cold. Cold water weighs more than warm and as a result, the warm waters of the equator drift toward the poles. The cold wear from the poles then flows toward the equator to replace the warm water that is leaving.


What causes currents I flow between the poles and the equator?
