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.


Describe the temperature of the currents that flow away from the equator and explain why they are this way?

Heating by the sun near the equator makes the water there warm. In the polar regions, the water is cold. Cold water weighs more than warm and as a result, the warm waters of the equator drift toward the poles. The cold wear from the poles then flows toward the equator to replace the warm water that is leaving.


Do the trade winds occur on the equator?

No, the trade winds do not occur on the equator. The trade winds are typically located between 30 degrees North and South of the equator. At the equator, the winds are generally weaker and form the doldrums, also known as the Intertropical Convergence Zone.


Why does warm water flow away from the equator?

Warm water flows away from the equator due to Earth's rotation and the Coriolis effect. As the warm water moves towards the poles, it gets deflected to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere, creating ocean currents that transport heat around the globe.


Do trade winds blow from the east and away from the equator?

Yes trade winds always blow to the east due to the western divide by the southern hemisphere
