North equatorial and south equatorial currents flow in which direction?
North Equatorial flow clockwise and southern counter-clockwise.
Ocean currents flow from east to west near what?
Ocean currents flow from east to west near the sub-equatorial area. These winds are called "trade winds" and they start in Portugal, they move to the Canary Islands, to the Cape Verde and then to the West part of the Caribbean.
Difference between cold and warm currents?
Warm currents are warm whereas cold currents are cold. Warm currents flow from the equatorial regions towards the polar regions whereas cold currents flow from the polar regions to the equatorial regions. By- Avyukt Sharma
Why there are more coastal deserts along the western coasts?
Ocean and wind currents above the equator flow in a clockwise pattern, while those south of the equator flow in a counterclockwise pattern. But all the winds and currents meet at the equator and flow east to west forming the trade winds and equatorial currents.
How are the north equatorial and south equatorial currents in the pacific ocean alike and different?
the wind direction is different
Where in the ocean do deep currents flow?
In the ocean floor.
What direction do surface currents near the equator?
Ocean currents flow near the equator from the east to west. Ocean currents flow near the poles from west to east.
How do the currents flow in the ocean?
The Current in the ocean spins in a circle.
Where do deep currents flow along in the ocean?
deep ocean currents form by the differences in the density of ocean water
What direction do surface currents near the equator flow?
Ocean currents flow near the equator from the east to west. Ocean currents flow near the poles from west to east.
Why do warm ocean currents cool as they flow along a coastline away from the equator?
Warm ocean currents cool as they flow along a coastline away from the equator because sand and minerals are transported by ocean currents away from the equator.
What are five ocean currents?
Labrador, Kuro Siwo, Humboldt, Gulf Stream, Southern Equatorial
