What factor causes surface currents north and south of the equator to move in different locations?

What are Currents powered by wind called?
Surface Currents
Are density currents faster than surface currents?
no, density currents flow slower than surface currents because surface currents are powered by the wind ;)
What type of current is caused by wind on the oceans surface?
Surface ocean currents are caused by winds. As wind blows across the surface, the wind pulls the water and causes waves.
How do surface currents move?
surface currents moves bcoz
What is difference between surface currents and deep currents?
Deep ocean currents are in the depths of the oceans. Surface current are at the surface, not deep down. Deep ocean currents bring vitamins and nutrients to the shore, surface currents do not. Deep ocean currents are caused by salinity and temperature differences. Surface currents are cause by the force and impact of the wind.

How do surface currents affect weather?
Your mom is the way surface currents affect weather
What is the definition to surface currents?
