How are deep ocean currents form?
Cold ocean currents sink under warm ocean currents to form deep ocean currents.
What forms surface ocean currents?
Ocean currents is what forms surface currents. This starts deep in the ocean.
What are the effects of ocean currents?
what are the effects of the ocean currents>
What advantages of ocean currents?
advantage of ocean currents
What are the climatic controls?
There are six major controls of the climate of any place are: LATITUDE ,ALTITUDE, PRESSURE AND WIND SYSTEM ,DISTANCE FROM THE SEA (continentality), ocean currents and relief features.
What is the relationship between convection currents in the ocean and convection currents in the atmosphere?
Which best explains the relationship between ocean currents and convection currents?(1 point) Responses Convection currents join with the Coriolis effect to create the winds that drive ocean currents. Convection currents join with the Coriolis effect to create the winds that drive ocean currents. Ocean currents rely on warm convection currents to strength the Coriolis effect. Ocean currents rely on warm convection currents to strength the Coriolis effect. Ocean currents create a Coriolis effect that increases convection currents. Ocean currents create a Coriolis effect that increases convection currents. Convection currents use the Coriolis effect to generate ocean currents.
What are the three climate controls?
1. Latitude 2. Land versus Water 3. Geographic position 4. Mountains 5. Ocean Currents 6. Pressure and Winds
Are ocean currents predictable?
yes ocean currents are predictable
How are ocean currents measured?
In the unit that they measure ocean currents.
What are the three types of ocean currents?
There are only two type of Ocean Currents: 1. Surface Currents- 10% of the water in the ocean 2. Deep Water Currents- 90% of the water in the ocean
How are ocean currents like wind currents?
they are both currents.
