The Gulf Stream of the Atlantic Ocean
What else can I help you with?
Why does Sweden have a warmer climate than you might expect?
Because the Gulf Stream and the North Atlantic Drift, two warm water currents, bring warm water to Western Europe.
Ocean currents moving away from the equator bring what waters?
Ocean currents moving away from the equator typically bring colder waters from higher latitudes towards the equator. These colder waters often carry nutrients, which can impact marine ecosystems and provide a source of food for various marine organisms.
Is hammerfest Norway affected by ocean currents?
Yes, Hammerfest, Norway, is influenced by ocean currents, particularly by the North Atlantic Current and the Norwegian Current. These currents bring warmer waters from the Atlantic, which can moderate the local climate, making it milder compared to other areas at similar latitudes. Additionally, the interaction of these currents with the Arctic waters can impact marine life and weather patterns in the region.
Can you bring my PS4 from Europe to the US Are there any legal restrictions that would not allow me to bring such things?
There are no laws for such things, but I don't think the power currents would be compatible, the US is NTSC format and Europe is PAL
How do ocean currents affects climates?
Ocean currents affect climate because they are able to change the temperature of the shores where the currents move to. Warm currents are able to prevent ice formation on some shores and beach lines. This gives the area relatively warmer temperatures throughout the year. The Gulf Stream (a warm current from Mexico to Europe) keeps Western Europe much warmer than the corresponding latitudes in North America. Ocean currents can have a great affect on the neighboring regions. These currents bring temperature and weather changes to these areas. Deep ocean currents changes the temperature and salinity. With the temperature changing, it affects climate.
What was most responsible for bring about the decline of feudalism in western Europe?
revival of trade and commerce
Why western coast continent is warmer?
Ocean currents in the Pacific carry warmer waters from the South and another current carrying cold water also comes in from the North, both keeping the West coast in balance, while the temperatures on the East coast vary greater because of this lack of oceanic temperature control.
When did Germany bring World War 2 to Western Europe?
The war in Western Europe began on May 10, 1940. Germany had been successful in Poland in 1939. With the East secured, Germany set its sights on Western Europe. France dominated Western Europe, and seemed well qualified to use all of its defensive power to halt the Germans.
What is the side of a continent with cooler ocean temperatures?
The western side of continents tends to have cooler ocean temperatures because of cold ocean currents flowing towards the equator from the poles. These currents bring colder water to the western coasts, influencing the climate of the adjacent land areas.
Two ways in which the proximity to water has affected Western Europe's climate?
1. there are no mountains to protect it from the sea 2. and its has wet cool summers and wet, mild winters.
How come Europe does not have warmer climates?
Well you have to look at the latitude/position of Europe, look how far north it is! Europe is actually very warm for its location, compared to areas at the same latitude. The warm ocean currents bring warmer weather.
Why is it drier in the east of Europe?
The prevailing winds of the west are what generally bring wet weather to Europe. It first crosses over Western Europe, dropping most of its rain there. By the time it reaches Eastern Europe, there is less rainfall.
