Wind, deflection from land, temperature differences between layers of cold and warm water.
no
Scientists want to learn about ocean currents because the currents affect Earth's climate and atmosphere and act as conveyor belts.
you should really read your textbook.
The sun causes currents in the ocean because it is warming the water in the ocean in the day while it is hot, and then in the night when the sun goes down, the ocean starts to cool. Since the air above the water is warmer than in the water, this causes the water to rise up to the warmth until it gets cooled by the night, or from rain. This is what created movement and currents in the ocean from the sun.
Surface
Continental deflections,the Coriolis effect and global winds all effect surface ocean currents.
the sun and erosion
Ocean currents is what forms surface currents. This starts deep in the ocean.
Surface ocean currents are caused by winds. As wind blows across the surface, the wind pulls the water and causes waves.
Deep ocean currents are in the depths of the oceans. Surface current are at the surface, not deep down. Deep ocean currents bring vitamins and nutrients to the shore, surface currents do not. Deep ocean currents are caused by salinity and temperature differences. Surface currents are cause by the force and impact of the wind.

Yes ocean currents do affect japan.
