The air of a region where the temperature is higher is warmer than the air of a region where the temperature is lower. As a result, the air will flow from the warmer region to the cooler region. This generates air currents.
Heat can cause convection currents, whereby water moves across the surface of the ocean then cools and sinks.
Deep currents form where the density of ocean water increase so, water density depends on temperature and salinity. I hope I helped you =)
Salinity plays the role of helping to circulate the ocean currents
Deep ocean currents affect climate by carrying warm, dense water away from the Equator, toward the poles. Circulated water plays an important role in distributing the world's heat energy.
In a very complex and not fully understood manner!

how does salinity create ocean currents
All currents are caused by differences in pressure.
The things that affect climate are global winds, ocean currents, distance to water, topography, latitude, and elevation.
Ok, so the movement of the continents changed location of land and sea, therefore changing the wind patterns and ocean currents, slowly changing climate globally. Also, as the continents continue to move, climates will also continue to change.
Ocean currents distribute heat around, maintaining a habitable temperature range over most of the Earth's Surface. Warm water is essential for cloud formation, as it evaporates faster than cold water. This is essential to maintain the Water Cycle.

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.
Latitude, winds, and currents strongly affect a region's climate
Ocean currents greatly affect the climate of Japan. Summer months are hot and wet due to currents that blow from the Pacific Ocean. These currents are also responsible for frequent typhoons.
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.
The warm water currents in the ocean make the atmosphere warmer hence the climate of those regions become warmer.
rapid tempature change is the main characteristic that effects deep ocean currents.
