Ocean currents are similar to streams and rivers on land in that both involve the movement of water from one location to another, driven by gravity and differences in water density. They can both be influenced by factors such as wind, temperature, and salinity, which affect their flow patterns. Additionally, just as streams and rivers can transport nutrients and sediments, ocean currents also play a crucial role in distributing heat and nutrients across vast distances in the ocean, impacting marine ecosystems.
