If you look at a map of ocean currents, you'll note that water does not remain in one place. That is, it doesn't go to the equator and remain there. Ocean surface currents tend to swirl, so upon reaching the equator, the currents will bring the waters in a full circle and repeat the process. Additionally, water has a tendency to evaporate, even frozen water--ask the Inuit what a Chinook is (hint: it isn't a fish, or a large, flying brick the US Army uses for troop and equipment transport). Also, ocean currents move in many different directions, the ocean being a three dimensional space, some of the water moves to different levels.
What else can I help you with?
Does the equator go through Cameroon?
No. Cameroon is just north of the equator.
The land and water north of the equator is called?
The land and water north of the equator is called the Northern Hemisphere.
What describes the movement of water between the poles and the equator?
The movement of water between the poles and the equator is driven by global wind patterns and ocean currents. Warm water moves from the equator towards the poles, while cold water flows from the poles towards the equator in a process known as thermohaline circulation. This exchange of water helps regulate global climate and ocean temperatures.
Does the Gulf Stream move water away from the equator and the Benguela current move some of this same water back towards the equator?
Yes, the Gulf Stream transports warm water from the tropics toward the North Atlantic, away from the equator. The Benguela Current located off the southwest coast of Africa transports some of this water back towards the equator, creating a cyclical flow pattern in the ocean.
