ocean currents may be considerably warmer or colder than the normal surface air temperatures. their effect is greatest when the prevailing winds blow from the water to the land.

How do ocean currents affect coastal climate temperature?
no
Which is true A. The ocean has no effect on the temperature on the land. B. Ocean currents affect temperatures on land. C. All ocean water is the same temperature. D. Ocean water does not move between locations.?
B. Ocean currents affect temperatures on land.
How do we affect the Atlantic ocean?
i think your words are flipped. You may mean "How does the Atlantic ocean affect the climate?" If that is your question, the ocean currents have a major impact on the climate of some countries because the temperature of the ocean current can affect the surrounding regions. You should look into ocean currents.
Two things that can affect the temperature of ocean water?
The temperature of ocean water can be affected by the depth. The deeper it gets, the colder the temperature. The current also can affect the temperature of ocean water.
Does ocean currents affect the climat of Tokyo japan?
Yes ocean currents do affect japan.
How do ocean currents affect air temperature in coastal areas?
Warm Ocean currents warms the air above it and some move from the tropic towards both poles ---------------------------------------------------------AND----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cold Ocean currents also affect weather patterns by bringing cold water from polar to the equator
How do ocean currents affects climates?
Ocean currents affect climate because they are able to change the temperature of the shores where the currents move to. Warm currents are able to prevent ice formation on some shores and beach lines. This gives the area relatively warmer temperatures throughout the year. The Gulf Stream (a warm current from Mexico to Europe) keeps Western Europe much warmer than the corresponding latitudes in North America. Ocean currents can have a great affect on the neighboring regions. These currents bring temperature and weather changes to these areas. Deep ocean currents changes the temperature and salinity. With the temperature changing, it affects climate.
How does the temperature affect the formation of deep currents?
Deep currents form where the density of ocean water increase so, water density depends on temperature and salinity. I hope I helped you =)
How do currents affect temperature?
Warm currents have a very obvious affect on the temperature that surrounds it. Warm currents will warm the area around the currents.
What six factors affect ocean currents?
Global Winds, Earth´s Rotation, and Water Temperature
How did continental drift affect temperature and precipitation patterns around the planet?
Continental drift affect temperature and precipitation patterns around the planet by changing ocean currents
How do winds affect ocean waters?
Winds affect ocean water by blowing the water across making ocean currents and changing the temperature. Catastrophic Events? Me too.
