What is a scientist who studies waves and ocean currents?
A Hydrologist studies the movement, distribution, and quality of water on Earth and an Oceanographer studies the ocean, either of whom might find themselves contributing to studies of waves and currents.
How are deep ocean currents form?
Cold ocean currents sink under warm ocean currents to form deep ocean currents.
A scientist that studies waves and ocean currents is a?
An oceanographer.
What is the movement of deep ocean water controlled by?
Ocean currents
Why did the ocean-going sailboats depend on ocean currents?
currents provide movement in times of little to no wind
What do deep currents cause?
They cause movement of the ocean.
What effects does the surface-wind pattern have on the circulation of the oceans?
The movement of wind over the surface of the ocean causes friction. The wind drags the ocean surface with it, making the pattern called surface-ocean wind-drift currents.
What features if the ocean have modern scientist investigated?
ocean water chemistry, currents, ocean life, and the shape of the ocean floor
What are streams of water in the ocean that move in a pattern?
Ocean currents.
What are ocean currents and movement?
They are pulled from the gravity/force of the moon therefore creating waves and currents.
What is the most movement of water on the ocean's surface?
Surface Currents.
A scientist who studies waves and ocean currents?
Physical oceanography is the special area of oceanography that deals with currents and waves. It is the study of physical attributes of the ocean.
