deep currents
streamlike movement of water that flow very slowly along the ocean floor.
surface current
can influence the climate of land are they flow past.
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.
Ocean currents are primarily caused by wind patterns, the Earth's rotation (Coriolis effect), and differences in water density due to temperature and salinity variations. Surface currents are driven by winds, while deep ocean currents are influenced by density differences and temperature gradients. The combination of these factors creates the two types of ocean currents.

Deep ocean currents have enormous effect on climatic conditions. Deep ocean currents are also known as conveyor belt for temperature. There are two types of water currents, cold and warm. The warm water currents are less dense than cold water currents.
discuss warm ocean currents
The two causes of ocean currents are wind and the rotation of the earth(etc) The wind blows which makes the currents in the water and the rotation of the earth(gravity) makes currents in the ocean currents. Luaye Sharawy

Cold ocean currents sink under warm ocean currents to form deep ocean currents.
Which best explains the relationship between ocean currents and convection currents?(1 point) Responses Convection currents join with the Coriolis effect to create the winds that drive ocean currents. Convection currents join with the Coriolis effect to create the winds that drive ocean currents. Ocean currents rely on warm convection currents to strength the Coriolis effect. Ocean currents rely on warm convection currents to strength the Coriolis effect. Ocean currents create a Coriolis effect that increases convection currents. Ocean currents create a Coriolis effect that increases convection currents. Convection currents use the Coriolis effect to generate ocean currents.
ocean currents happen when two or more oceans with differant temperetures meet, correct me if im wrong im no expert
