What is the results of convection currents in the atmosphere?
Wind.
What are Currents powered by wind called?
Currents powered by wind are called wind-driven currents or wind-driven circulation. These currents are created by the friction between the wind and the surface of the water, causing the water to move in the direction of the wind.
What do patterns of heating and cooling in the atmosphere result in?
Ocean currents. This could also apply to wind currents.
What is the effects of earths rotation on the direction of the wind and currents?
It's called the 'coriolis' effect.
What two spheres interact with wave currents?
The atmosphere and hydrosphere interact with wave currents. Wave currents are formed by the interactions of wind with the surface of the ocean, which is part of the hydrosphere, while the atmosphere plays a crucial role in generating and sustaining these wind patterns.
Do convection currents cause earths heat?
No. Convection currents are the circular motion of earth's wind. If the earth did not rotate, convection currents would not be. Does that make sense?
What is the relationship between the movement of the atmosphere and the movement of surface current?
Surface currents are driven by a combination of factors, including wind patterns created by the movement of the atmosphere. Wind blowing over the surface of the ocean generates friction, causing water to move in the direction of the wind. This creates surface currents that can influence weather patterns and ocean circulation.
What is the difference between wind and currents?
Wind refers to the movement of air in the atmosphere, while currents refer to the movement of water in the ocean. Wind is generated by temperature and pressure differences in the atmosphere, while ocean currents are influenced by factors such as temperature, salinity, and the Earth's rotation. Both wind and currents play important roles in shaping weather patterns and distributing heat around the Earth.

What is it called when wind and ocean currents work together?
Could it be Ocean-Atmosphere Coupling.
