The two causes of ocean currents are wind and the rotation of the earth(etc)
The wind blows which makes the currents in the water and the rotation of the earth(gravity) makes currents in the ocean currents.

HOW does the Coriolis effect impact ocean currents in the southern and northern hemisphere?
In the northern hemisphere, the Coriolis effect causes ocean currents to be deflected to the right. In the southern hemisphere, the Coriolis effect causes ocean currents to be deflected to the left. This deflection leads to the clockwise rotation of ocean currents in the northern hemisphere and counterclockwise rotation in the southern hemisphere.
How do deep ocean currents occur?
It is from differing temperatures of air above it that causes currents to flow in the water.
What causes the formation of the two type of ocean currents?
The MOON and SUN
What effect causes ocean currents to curve to the right or the left?
the answer is Coriolis
What causes ocean waves currents?
Winds and subsea movement of water.
What force between the ocean and wind causes surface currents?
;
What causes deep ocean surface currents?
The gravitation pull on the earth.
What is directly related to deep ocean current?
Movement of the ocean, or tides are directly related to deep ocean currents. Deep ocean currents are also responsible for the wind that causes the waves to crash into the shore.
What causes the patterns of surface currents in the ocean?
The Earth rotating and its tilt of the axis forms the oceans' tides and currents.
