As the equator is warm, the currents that originate from there are also warm.
Do deep ocean currents and surface currents mix?
Deep ocean currents and surface currents do interact and influence each other. While they flow at different depths and have different driving factors (wind for surface currents and density for deep currents), they are connected through the global ocean circulation system. Changes in one can impact the other over time.

Why does the a ocean current flowing next to a landmass affect the climate of the landmass?
Ocean currents can transfer heat from one location to another, affecting the temperature of the landmass they flow by. Warm currents can raise temperatures, while cold currents can lower temperatures. Additionally, ocean currents can also influence precipitation patterns by impacting humidity levels along the coastlines of land masses.
