warm surface currents come from the polar and temperate latitudes, and they tend to flow towards the equator. Like the warm surface currents, mainly atmospheric forces drive them. Gyres form when the major ocean currents connect. Water flows in a circular pattern-clockwise in the northern hemisphere, and clockwise in the Southern hemisphere.
East dummy
Cold currents generally flow towards the equator. (a.k.a. south).
Cold water currents are found in both the northern and southern hemispheres. However, in the northern hemisphere, some well-known cold water currents include the California Current and the Canary Current. In the southern hemisphere, examples include the Benguela Current and the Peru Current.
The Alaska, Northern Pacific, and California currents carry cold water in the Eastern Pacific ocean in the Northern Hemisphere.
This current flows southerly towards the equator.
December is cold in the northern hemisphere and warm in the southern hemisphere.
No
it depends on the hemisphere and what season. example: Northern hemisphere-(summer in the Southern) winter cold, Southern hemisphere-(winter in the Northern) summer hot
Cold ocean currents are not found in the northern part of Indian ocean due to excess heat from sun.

It's no colder than any other hemisphere (on average)
