How does temperature and density have an effect on convection currents in the ocean?
The ocean has more density than the land. So therefore it takes more energy from the sun to warm up the ocean than the land. The land heats faster and cools of faster. It takes less energy to warm up the land than the ocean. This is why sea and land breezes occur.

Why are continents older than ocean basins?

How do you think the temperature of the ocean compares with the temperature of the land nearby?
Land heats more rapidly and to higher temperatures than water does, and cools quicker to lower temperatures than water. Ocean temperatures are more moderate than land temperatures.
Why does New England have mild winters?
The ocean cools and heats up slower than land does; therefore, during winter, the ocean is as warm as the land in summer and in summer the water is as warm as the land in winter.
