The influence of the ocean (notably the Gulf Stream) allows French climate to be somewhat mild during winter and that influence can still be felt in Paris, which is only 200 km East of the English Channel and 450 from the Atlantic Ocean. Otherwise Ocean currents have no effects on the Seine river going through Paris.

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.


What causes the global convection current between the equations and the poles?

Surface currents are caused by wind, and affected by the rotation of the Earth and the gravity of the moon (tides). When the oceans are deep, convection within the layers can also affect the flow of currents. * While wind currents are greatly affected by uneven heating of the Earth's surface, there is no corresponding heating of the ocean bottom by the Sun. So currents do not form spontaneously at depth.


What caused the global convection current between the equator and the poles?
