Unlike lands near warm oceans currents lands near cold oceans currents may cool land dry the cold Peru current passes near the earths driest desert What is its name?
The answer is the Atacama Desert. The desert covers an area of 40,541 square miles.
Why is the desert sometimes classified as hot or cold?
Some deserts are hot, some are cold, depending upon the geographic location. Some cold deserts can be quite hot during the summer but are bitterly cold during the winter (Gobi Desert, Great Basin Desert). Some deserts are cold all year long (Antarctic Desert). Some are quite cool all year long because they are locate on the coast near cold ocean currents (Atacama and Namb Deserts). Some deserts are hot in the summer but have mild winters (Sahara and Mojave Deserts). Geography determines the climate of a desert.

What cold currents near coastlines might indicate sites of upwelling?
Cold currents near coastlines often indicate the presence of upwelling. This is because upwelling brings cold, nutrient-rich waters from the ocean depths to the surface, leading to colder surface currents. Some examples of cold currents near coastlines that are associated with upwelling include the California Current, the Benguela Current, and the Canary Current.

A warm ocean current affecting England's climate?
Currents that originate near the equator are going to be warm water currents, and currents that form near the poles will be cold water currents. It is the temperature of the waters in these currents that influence the climates of the land masses by or around which they flow.
