Tides are caused by the gravitational attraction of the Moon. The tides interact with the continental plates to form currents, which can also be created or altered by temperature differences in the sea.
Winds are caused by the motion of air masses when the atmosphere is heated by the Sun, or cooled by colder land and ice surfaces. Air masses are also steered by the spinning of the Earth.
