What is deep currents?
A deep current is found in the ocean when a temperature change occurs. This also has to do with the alignment of the sun and the moon.
How deep trenches are formed?
Deep-ocean trenches are formed where seafloor tectonic plates subduct under continental plates.
What current brings cold water to the ocean surface?
An upwelling is a current in the ocean that brings deep, cold water to the ocean surface.
Does theory continental drift state that new ocean crust is formed at ocean ridges and destroyed at deep sea trenches?
No, the theory is that Seafloor spreading state that the new ocean crust is formed at ocean ridges and is destroyed at deep sea trenches.
What is directly related to deep ocean current?
Movement of the ocean, or tides are directly related to deep ocean currents. Deep ocean currents are also responsible for the wind that causes the waves to crash into the shore.
