Why is ocean water near the equator warmer than ocean water at the poles?
The ocean receives most of its heat along the equator, where incoming solar radiation is about double that received at the poles. Hence, sea surfaces are much warmer along the equator than at the poles.
Why is it that the water along the equator is colder then the water to the north and south?
because the currents push the warm water to the north or the south, so little warm water accually stays directly on the equator.
What is transported when warm ocean currents cool as they flow along the coastline away from the equator?

What does warm water do to the climate?
Ocean currents move warm water from the equator to the poles and cold water from the poles back to the equator. The heat carried north helps warm the northern countries in the winter time.
