thee are no working ocean current absorbing systems inplace that I know of at the moment, however the idea has been patented and might very well come into production sometime in the next 10 years, if they discover a cost effective way to safely produce it.

What is the relationship between convection currents in the ocean and convection currents in the atmosphere?

Which best explains the relationship between ocean currents and convection currents?(1 point) Responses Convection currents join with the Coriolis effect to create the winds that drive ocean currents. Convection currents join with the Coriolis effect to create the winds that drive ocean currents. Ocean currents rely on warm convection currents to strength the Coriolis effect. Ocean currents rely on warm convection currents to strength the Coriolis effect. Ocean currents create a Coriolis effect that increases convection currents. Ocean currents create a Coriolis effect that increases convection currents. Convection currents use the Coriolis effect to generate ocean currents.

How do hydroelectric energy plants work?

Hydroelectric plants use the running water by a turbine with blades on it, and when the water flows through these turbines they rotate,. in turn rotating the alternators that make the electricity which is sent from the power-station via the wires to houses, businesses etc that need the electricity.


What do hydroelectric power plants use falling water to spin?

Turbines. These are then used to spin magnets next to wires. This generates electricity.
