How do ocean surface currents cause milder climates?

Ocean currents can carry warm water. As they are traveling, the warm water they are carrying warms up the air near them. The warmed air may then also warm the land around it, making the temperature of the land near the ocean currents milder.

How does ocean life affect ocean currents?

It's more likely the other way around. Ocean currents affect ocean life. Perhaps in a subtle way, since all life on the planet affects the atmosphere, especially the algae in the oceans releasing oxygen, that ocean life affects the weather, which in turn affects the ocean currents. It's also possible that some "seaweed forests" slow the movement of currents.


How do ocean currents affects climates?

Ocean currents affect climate because they are able to change the temperature of the shores where the currents move to. Warm currents are able to prevent ice formation on some shores and beach lines. This gives the area relatively warmer temperatures throughout the year. The Gulf Stream (a warm current from Mexico to Europe) keeps Western Europe much warmer than the corresponding latitudes in North America. Ocean currents can have a great affect on the neighboring regions. These currents bring temperature and weather changes to these areas. Deep ocean currents changes the temperature and salinity. With the temperature changing, it affects climate.
