What is the relationship between convection currents in the ocean and convection currents in the atmosphere?
Which best explains the relationship between ocean currents and convection currents?(1 point) Responses Convection currents join with the Coriolis effect to create the winds that drive ocean currents. Convection currents join with the Coriolis effect to create the winds that drive ocean currents. Ocean currents rely on warm convection currents to strength the Coriolis effect. Ocean currents rely on warm convection currents to strength the Coriolis effect. Ocean currents create a Coriolis effect that increases convection currents. Ocean currents create a Coriolis effect that increases convection currents. Convection currents use the Coriolis effect to generate ocean currents.
How does currents affect the coriolis effect?
The coriolis effect makes ocean currents move in a curved path.
HOW does the Coriolis effect impact ocean currents in the southern and northern hemisphere?
In the northern hemisphere, the Coriolis effect causes ocean currents to be deflected to the right. In the southern hemisphere, the Coriolis effect causes ocean currents to be deflected to the left. This deflection leads to the clockwise rotation of ocean currents in the northern hemisphere and counterclockwise rotation in the southern hemisphere.
What are the effects of ocean currents?
what are the effects of the ocean currents>
How does the coriolis effect make oceans currents appear to move?
The coriolis effect makes ocean currents move in a curved path.
What effect causes ocean currents to curve to the right or the left?
the answer is Coriolis
What curving of the path of the winds and ocean currents is called the?
the coriolis effect
The Coriolis effect causes surface ocean currents to?
bend and curve
What direction does the Coriolis effect cause currents in the northern hemisphere to turn?
In the northern hemisphere, the Coriolis effect causes currents to turn to the right. This means that ocean currents tend to flow clockwise in the northern hemisphere as a result of the Coriolis effect.
What causes gyres?
Gyres are circular movements of ocean currents caused by the Coriolis Effect.
Wind and ocean currents do not move in straight lines This is called?
the Coriolis effect.
What are three factors that affect the surface ocean currents?
Continental deflections,the Coriolis effect and global winds all effect surface ocean currents.
