west wind drift or the humboldt current
The Namib desert borders the Atlantic Ocean, the predominant current along the cost is the Bengeulla current
Brazil Current
the Mozambique current in the Indian ocean - east coast of South Africa the Bengula current in the Atlantic ocean - west coast of South Africa
59.3/square mile
How do currents that flow along the west coast of continents compare with Currents that flow along the east coasts of continents
it is south america
If you are counting the current seven continents Africa, North America, South America, Asia, Europe, Antarctica and Australia as super continents the three other super continents are: Pangea, Rodinia and Laurasia.
west wind drift or the humboldt current
The Gulf Stream
Pangaea was a supercontinent that existed around 335 million years ago, which eventual broke apart into two fragments: Laurasia in the north (which includes North America, Europe, and Asia) and Gondwana in the south (which includes South America, Africa, Antarctica, Australia, and the Indian subcontinent).
The "north Atlantic current" is very strong.I really like the "north Atlantic current."The "north Atlantic current" is driven by the global thermohaline circulation (THC), it is wind driven
continents moved over time to their current locations
The Gulf Stream and the California current are the two ocean currents that affect North America. The California current originates in the Pacific Ocean, while the Gulf Stream originates in the Atlantic Ocean.
Continents.
The original super-continent of Pangaea broke up about 200 million years ago during the Paleozoic era forming the continents of Gondwanaland and Laurasia. Gondwanaland later fragmented into Antarctica, Africa, Australia, India and South America. Similarly, Laurasia broke up into Asia, Europe and North America. The current 7 continents have been more or less in their current positions for the past few million years.
There are only 7 continents in the world. They are Africa, Europe, Asia, South America, North America, Australia, and Antarctica.
