What drives ocean currents?
wind
How are deep ocean currents form?
Cold ocean currents sink under warm ocean currents to form deep ocean currents.
What is the movement of deep ocean water controlled by?
Ocean currents
Why did the ocean-going sailboats depend on ocean currents?
currents provide movement in times of little to no wind
What do deep currents cause?
They cause movement of the ocean.
What primarily drives the surface ocean currents?
The driving force behind surface currents is the wind. The wind happens naturally due to the constant rotating of the Earth.
What are ocean currents and movement?
They are pulled from the gravity/force of the moon therefore creating waves and currents.
What is the most movement of water on the ocean's surface?
Surface Currents.
What causes ocean waves currents?
Winds and subsea movement of water.
What is responsible for the uneven heating drives wind and ocean currents from day to day?
Earth's tilt
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.
What movement will occur when fresh water and salt water are in contact with each other simulating ocean currents with different densities of water?
The movement of water when ocean and fresh water meet is called Density currents.
