What do you call a person that studies sound?
someone who studies sound and it's properties is a Audiologist
Why do surface currents curve?
surface currents curve because the waves of an ocean bushes the sand. it mostly depends on the weather if its hot waves are known ed to be smooth, but if is bad weather like thunder or rain the waves will move faster so the currents cant handle the strength so it moves so it upper level curves leaving the sure to move closer to land.
How do deep currents affect climate?
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.

What is the science that deals with the dynamics of the ocean?
Generally, the study of oceans is Oceanography. Specifically, the study of waves and currents is Physical Oceanography, one of the four branches of Oceanography; Physical, Chemical, Biological, and Geological. The study of waves and currents is often confused with Astronomy, since they are caused by the moon; however, the study of the effect is classified under Physical Oceanography.
