North Equatorial flow clockwise and southern counter-clockwise.
Probably by what kind of current they get there.
the wind direction is different
Surface ocean currents are mainly wind-driven and occur in all of the world's oceans. Examples of large surface currents that move across vast expanses of ocean are the Gulf Stream, the North Atlantic Current, the California Current, the Atlantic South Equatorial Current, and the Westwind Drift. --- Vertical and ocean-bottom currents are mainly driven by density differences caused by changes in temperature and salinity.
The North Equatorial Current got its name from the fact that it is north of the equator and vise versa with the South Equatorial Current, the fact that it is South of the Equator.
The warm, low salinity waters from Pacific are transported into Indian Ocean's South Equatorial Current.

9.37 degrees south north
Equatorial Lands lie in the region between 5 degrees North and 5 degrees South of the Equator.
Cold currents originate from the polar regions which are the North and South Pole. Therefore, the cold currents originate from the latitudes of 90 degrees north and 90 degrees south.
No curret runs through the Sargasso Sea. The Sargasso Seais a region in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean|North Atlantic Ocean, surrounded by ocean currents. It is bounded on the west by the Gulf Stream; on the north, by the North Atlantic Current; on the east, by the Canary Current; and on the south, by the North Atlantic Equatorial Current. This system of currents forms the North Atlantic Subtropical Gyre.
Cameroon to the north and east. Gabon to the south and east.
