wind.
Surface currants form by global winds, Coriolis effect (earth's rotation) and continental deflections (surface currents meet continents they change direction).
Suface currents form from the wind. The wind can make the surface cold or warm.
The sun is major source of energy that power surface currents because the sun causes wind to blow and winds cause surface currents to form
Convection currents are the ones that can form in the geosphere and carry heat from the Earth's mantle towards the surface. These currents move molten rock in the mantle due to differences in temperature and density, driving the movement of tectonic plates and influencing volcanic activity.
The spheres that interact to form a surface current are the hydrosphere (oceans) and the atmosphere (wind). Surface currents are driven by the wind patterns on the ocean's surface. The wind causes the movement of water at the surface, creating ocean currents.
of course i can answer this question... what am i stupid? haha yeah i have no idea
Surface currents are caused by the friction of wind on the water. The currents are also affected by the Coriolis Effect, which is the apparent deflection of objects moving in a straight path relative to the earth's surface.
The driving force behind surface currents is the wind. The wind happens naturally due to the constant rotating of the Earth.
no, density currents flow slower than surface currents because surface currents are powered by the wind ;)

With water or oceanic currents, the currents which move close to the surface of the sea are called surface currents. In such currents, wind acts on the water and the water piles up to form strong movement forces.
Surface ocean currents are caused by winds. As wind blows across the surface, the wind pulls the water and causes waves.
surface currents moves bcoz
