The dense fogs off Newfoundland occur when warm, moist air from the Gulf Stream blows over the LABRADOR CURRENT
the name is the gulf stream
The gulf stream - it carries warmth towards northern Europe.
warmer towards california and colder towards england

It is called a current, or occasionally a stream (e.g. the Gulf Stream that travels along the US coast and carries warmer water to northern Europe).

The Labrador Sea is a body of water between Greenland and the coast of Labrador. It is 3400 m deep and 1000 km wide. The sea's circulation is anticlockwise. The West Greenland Current transports warmer, more saline water northward, while the Labrador Currenr transports cold, less saline water southward. The northern and western Labrador Sea is ice-covered from December through June.
