Salt influences deep ocean currents primarily through a process called thermohaline circulation, which is driven by variations in water density caused by temperature (thermo) and salinity (haline). Higher salinity increases water density, causing it to sink in certain regions, such as the North Atlantic. This sinking water contributes to the global conveyor belt of ocean currents, affecting climate and nutrient distribution. Overall, changes in salt levels can significantly alter deep ocean circulation patterns.
it makes cold water rise 2 the surface.and that's how sailinity affects currents.
deepwater currents
NO
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?
Cold ocean currents sink under warm ocean currents to form deep ocean 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.
Differences in temperature and in density of seawater drive deep ocean currents.
Deep ocean currents are predominantly cold.
