What are Poland's ocean currents?
Pland has heavy and very cold wind currents sometime they cause CRAZY!!!! Storms.
Why do currents tend to flow around the periphery of an ocean basin?
Water density. Cold water is more dense than warmer water, also salty water is more dense than less salty water. The differences in water density from heat (thermal, like at the equator) and salinity cause water cooling near the poles to cool and sink in essence pushing down or sinking. this forces the water there to move (flow), this creates the "conveyor effect". Most Earth Science books talk about that and why it happens.
How did Romans cool the frigidarium?
The frigidarium was a room for a cold-plunge bath. It had a pool with cold water.
How should cotton be washed?
cotton should be washed with cold water
How do you clean tripe?
Rinse under cold water then place it in boiling water with some salt. Let the tripe boil for two to three hours. Place the tripe in a pot of cold water and let it soak in the water overnight. Scrape the insides using a knife to remove any remaining grit.
What is cold-water currents and climate?
Cold water currents are currents which flow deep along the ocean floor. Cold water currents can cause temperature changes which in return can have a major impact on the overall climate of the Earth.
What effects do deeps currents have?
Deep ocean currents have enormous effect on climatic conditions. Deep ocean currents are also known as conveyor belt for temperature. There are two types of water currents, cold and warm. The warm water currents are less dense than cold water currents.
How is an ocean current considered to be warm or cold?
Warm or cold defines the temperature of the water. In general warm currents flow north and cold currents flow south. That makes sense. Also warm currents flow on the surface and cold currents flow deep since cold water is denser than warm water.

What are deep-water currents caused by cold water sinking and pushing up warmer water?
density currents.
How do warm water currents influence climate?
The Warm and Cold water currents effect Earth's climate. The water currents bring cold artic water to the equator, and the warm water from the equater frows to the artic. This heat traveling in the water ceeps plases such as Europe from freezing over.
How do ocean currents get warm or cold?
if its by the equator or the two poles, its gonna be cold water currents. hope this helps :)
What carries cold and warm ocean water around the world?
Currents
Why are cold ocean water currents more likely located at deeper depths than warm water currents?
cold water is more dense and sinks i think
What is current and climate?
Cold water currents are currents which flow deep along the ocean floor. Cold water currents can cause temperature changes which in return can have a major impact on the overall climate of the Earth.
Where do cold-water and warm-water currents begin?
Cold Water begins at the poles and warm water begins at the equator
Where do cold water and warm water currents begin?
Cold Water begins at the poles and warm water begins at the equator
