It affects ocean currents because the sun hits the equator directly unlike towards the poles where they get less sun because they are farther away.

What creates the currents in the mantle of the earth?
they are convection currents, caused by the heating effect of the earths core
What causes surface ocean currents to flow in a circular pattern or earths revolution earths revolutoin or earths rotation?

What allowed lush plants to start growing on Earth's surface?
you suppose to answer it not leave it blank anyways the answer is heating of earths surface
What are local winds?
Local winds are winds that blow over short distances caused by unequal heating of the earths surface in a small area.

The answer is Wind pattern
The unequal heating of the earths surface is?
Inevitable.
What occurs because of unequal heating of earths surface?
wind
How are convective currents formed?
From the uneven heating of the earths surface
What are winds a result of?
high winds are normally caused by the unequal heating of the earths surface.
What does the unequal heating of earths cause?
It causes wind, with help from the moon's gravitational pull it causes ocean currents and it also helps with the seasons and weather.Windsconvection currentsUnequal heating of the earth's surface results in wind. That is what happens, if that's your question.

Which process produces rising air due to unequal heating of earths surface?
Frontal wedging
What season is it when the sun is heating earths surface the most?
It is summer when the sun is heating earths surface the most.
Why are warm currents warm and cold currents cold?
there are some warm currents as they flow along the earths surface while there some cold currents as they travel below the earths surface
