What causes ocean currents to move in different directions in different hemispheres?
North and South poles
How are ocean currents in the northern and southern hemispheres alike and how are they different?
they all alike
Ocean currents in the northern and southern hemispheres turn?
against the current
Where do warm currents move from?
Warm currents move from the equator to the poles, and the cold currents move from the poles to the equator. :D
What factor causes surface currents north and south of the equator to move in different locations?
Surface currents are created by air currents, earth's rotation, and positions of the continents.
The layer in which convection currents move?
Convection currents move in the Mantle.
What direction do convection currents-move?
Convection currents move in upward direction
Which way do currents move in the northern hemisphere southern hemisphere?
Currents in the Northern Hemisphere move in a clockwise direction. Currents in the Southern Hemisphere move in a counter clockwise direction.
Why do the surface currents move in different direction of the wind?
This is due to temperature and how water with different temperatures react.
Why are the northern and southern hemispheres different?
The northern and southern hemispheres experience different climates and seasons due to the Earth's tilt on its axis. This causes variations in sunlight exposure, leading to differences in temperature and weather patterns. Additionally, the distribution of land and water between the two hemispheres affects atmospheric circulation and ocean currents, contributing to their distinct characteristics.
How do surface currents move?
surface currents moves bcoz
Why do currents move in a circular patterns?
Currents move in a circular patteren because of the strong wind on planet earth.
