What factor causes surface currents north and south of the equator to move in different locations?
Surface currents are created by air currents, earth's rotation, and positions of the continents.
Why are latitude and longitude on earth?
To establish precise locations for any point on the earth's surface.
What is the longitude and latitude of the little dipper?
Longitude and latitude correspond to locations on the surface of the earth. The little dipper is in the sky. The world, itself, spins on an axis and rotates around the sun, there is no stationary latitude or longitude which corresponds to the little dipper.
What are three major surface currents?
They are surface currents, deep water currents. One moves water on the surface the other moves deep water.
Why military needs the use of longitude and latitude?
Latitude and longitude provide precise numerical coordinates to any point on earth' surface. Using these coordinates, exact locations can be found for military or civilian purposes such as navigation.
What two 23.5 degrees latitude locations are influenced by cool surface ocean currents?
the West coast of North America and the West coast of South America
How deep are currents and surface currents alike and how are they different?
They are both currents nut have different locations or spots they are from.
What factor causes surface currents north and south of the equator to move in different locations?
Surface currents are created by air currents, earth's rotation, and positions of the continents.
Why is it important that you have lines of longitude and latitude?
So you can find precise locations on the Earth's surface.
Why are latitude and longitude on earth?
To establish precise locations for any point on the earth's surface.
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
Why don't cities in the same hemisphere have similar temperatures?
The reason is because of Ocean/Surface Currents. The cities are in the same hemisphere, but they don't receive the same ocean current. Some ocean currents are warm, while some are cold.The Ocean/Surface Currents have an effect on the air temperatures, too. Another reason is because of latitude. When a city is at a higher latitude the air expands and makes the temperature colder ,while if the latitude is lower the air loses moisture and the temperature heats up.
Stream like movements of water at or near the surface of the ocean are called?
Stream like movements of water at tor near the surface of the ocean are called currents. A current's direction and strength is influenced by depth contours, shoreline configurations and interaction with other currents.
