What are the three types of ocean currents?
The three types of ocean currents are surface currents, deep currents, and tidal currents. Surface currents are driven by winds, deep currents are driven by density and temperature differences, and tidal currents are driven by the gravitational pull of the moon and sun.
Do deep ocean currents and surface currents mix?
Deep ocean currents and surface currents do interact and influence each other. While they flow at different depths and have different driving factors (wind for surface currents and density for deep currents), they are connected through the global ocean circulation system. Changes in one can impact the other over time.
What currents are a result of the movement of both the sun and the moon?
Tidal currents
What are deep ocean currents primarily driven by?
Temperature differences in water
What do patterns of heating and cooling in the atmosphere result in?
Ocean currents. This could also apply to wind currents.
Are thermohaline currents surface or deep water currents?
deepwater currents
Are deep currents controlled by are deep currents controlled by wind?
NO
What is the difference between surface currents and deep currents?
Deep ocean currents are in the depths of the oceans. Surface current are at the surface, not deep down. Deep ocean currents bring vitamins and nutrients to the shore, surface currents do not. Deep ocean currents are caused by salinity and temperature differences. Surface currents are cause by the force and impact of the wind.

The deep water currents makes up what?
The deep water currents makes up what?
How are deep ocean currents form?
Cold ocean currents sink under warm ocean currents to form deep ocean currents.
What is the primary difference between surface currents and deep currents?
Compare and contrast surface currents and deep currents. They are both are moving water that flows through oceans. Surface currents are towards the top of the ocean, can be warm or cold, and are controlled by winds. Deep currents are low, deep in the ocean, cold, and are controlled by density.
How Do Deep Currents Form?
Differences in temperature and in density of seawater drive deep ocean currents.
Are deep ocean currents predominantly cold or warm?
Deep ocean currents are predominantly cold.
Deep ocean currents are created by cold water rising sinking or staying the same?
deep ocean currents are created by yo mama..... at night. deep ocean currents are created by yo mama..... at night. deep ocean currents are created by yo mama..... at night.
Compared with surface currents deep currents are?
Colder && Denser.
What is the depth of surface currents?
deep in the ocean
