  • Areas where warm and cold currents meet tend to have regular foggy conditions, as the overlying warm and cold air come in contact with each other.
  • they also tend to have high biological productivity, because plankton growth is encourage by the mixing of warm and cold currents.
  • Some of the world's most productive fishing grounds are located where warm and cold currents converge.
  • For example, where Labrador current (cold) and Gulf stream (warm) meet, a dense fog is there and it is one of the richest fishing grounds of the world.

How is an ocean current considered to be warm or cold?

Warm or cold defines the temperature of the water. In general warm currents flow north and cold currents flow south. That makes sense. Also warm currents flow on the surface and cold currents flow deep since cold water is denser than warm water.
