Temperature is what creates ocean gyres, which are large ocean currents. when the water heats up in the south it moves upward to the north. When the water is up north it gets cooled and goes down to the south again.
There are quite a few factors that have a major effect on deep water currents in the ocean. One factor is temperature.
I'm guessing this .
D continental deflection, but then again i don't recall remembering what
Coriolis effect is so um...?(plato)
ocean currents
Ocean currents are caused by various factors. They are made from earthquakes, winds, tides and differences in density. The currents of the ocean have an effect on the weather.
Wind and ocean currents are the two primary factors.
Due to fish, which are living species, science is completely involved. Fish swim in ocean currents, this is what makes it science.
Factors that set surface ocean currents into motions are the global circulation cells (Hadley, Ferrel, Polar), the Coriolis effect, and the continental deflection.
The factors that can modify the currents are direction and shape of coastlines, bottom reliefs of the ocean basins, seasonal variations and rotation of the earth. Ocean circulation is driven by winds and by differences in water density
Continental deflections,the Coriolis effect and global winds all effect surface ocean currents.
Ocean currents are generated by several environmental factors. These include wind, salinity variations, gravity, and natural events such as earthquakes.
