What else can I help you with?
Why is the sun energy needed for ocean current and winds to occur?
Quite simply, they won't move on their own.
How do coriolis effects relates to winds and ocean currents?
Surface current
Where do global winds move cold air?
Ocean currents form
What is used indirectly winds and ocean currents are used to do work There is two blanks in this answer?
wind current!
What is to move or cause to move rapidly back and forth or up and down?
a current there is a deep ocean current wich is in the midnight zone of the ocean. but there is also a surface current witch is in the sunlight zone of the sea.
How do zooplankton move?
They move with the current under the surface of the water.
How do icebergs move in the ocean?
Icebergs move in the ocean due to a combination of factors such as ocean currents, winds, and tides. The movement of icebergs can be influenced by these forces, causing them to drift and change direction as they travel through the water.
When the path of winds and ocean current seem to curve because of the earth's rotation its called the?
The Coriolis effect
Which is the closest ocean current to the Sahara Desert?
it is the Atlantic African coastal current which creates high winds, which helps create part of the desert!
Strongest ocean current?
South of New Zealand, the Southern Ocean's westerly winds drive the Antarctic Circumpolar Current, which flows continuously around the globe. This is the world's strongest ocean current, reaching down 4 kilometres to the ocean floor and transporting about 100 times the volume of water of all the world's rivers. The current does not directly affect New Zealand's main islands. However, the Campbell Plateau to the south deflects the current south and channels it north past the Antipodes Islands before the flow resumes its eastward course. Further south, cold, downward-moving winds, known as katabatic winds, flow off Antarctica. These winds drive a westward current and form a clockwise gyre in the Ross Sea.
Which direction do global winds blow ocean currents near the equator?
On the average, it most often blow horizontally.
What moves water parallel to Earth's surface?
Winds and ocean currents move water parallel to Earth's surface. Winds can create surface currents through friction with the ocean's surface, while ocean currents are driven by a combination of factors such as wind, temperature, salinity, and the Earth's rotation.
