What else can I help you with?
What causes surface and deep currents?
The gravitation pull on the earth.
Compare the causes and effects of deep currents and surface currents?
deep currents form when dense water neat the poles sinks and flows slowly along the ocea floor
How do deep ocean currents occur?
It is from differing temperatures of air above it that causes currents to flow in the water.
What causes deep ocean surface currents?
The gravitation pull on the earth.
What is directly related to deep ocean current?
Movement of the ocean, or tides are directly related to deep ocean currents. Deep ocean currents are also responsible for the wind that causes the waves to crash into the shore.
Are thermohaline currents surface or deep water currents?
deepwater currents
Are deep currents controlled by are deep currents controlled by wind?
NO
What causes deep curents?
Deep currents are caused partially by wind and the Coriolis effect and the other part is caused by the density change in water.
What causes deep water currents?
Deep water currents are primarily driven by differences in water temperature and salinity, which affect water density. When denser, colder, or saltier water sinks, it can create deep currents that move along the ocean floor. Other factors such as wind patterns, Earth's rotation, and underwater topography can also influence deep water currents.
What is the difference between surface currents and deep currents?
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.

What causes cold deep currents to in the ocean near the poles?
Sinking of dense, cold water with high salinity :)
