The wind.
What else can I help you with?
Are there water waves under water?
Waves, no. Currents, yes. There are a number of different subsurface currents in the oceans, however most of the water moved in such a way in the oceans of the world is referred to as "the Great Ocean Conveyor." This is explained in great detail at the related link below.
What causes surface oceans to be deflected?
Most ocean waves obtain thier energy and motion from
What source of energy causes these oceans currents?
The immediate source of most energy moving ocean currents is wind. The ultimate source of this energy is the sun.
What generates the most ocean waves?
wind (windswell) and earthquakes
What are the winds the most affect the oceans currents?
heey can ue find this answer for mehh plz it is my work for literacy
Because the oceans cover most of the earth's surface do the ocean currents transport most of the earth's energy from one region to another?

Why do the oceans have a great impact on the weather over the continents?
The oceans are the source of most of the humidity in the atmosphere. They also have more mild temperatures than the land, and thus cool or warm coastal areas. Ocean currents effect the temperatures of nearby land masses (cool currents make the land cooler, warm currents make the land warmer).
Most surface waves are caused by?
Most surface waves are caused by the wind blowing over the surface of the water, creating ripples and waves. Other factors that can cause surface waves include seismic activity, tides, and underwater landslides.
What seismic wave travels at the lowest rate but causes most destruction?
surface waves
When an earthquake strikes which type of seismic wave causes the most destruction?
Surface waves
The winds that are most involved in forming ocean currents are the?
The winds most involved in forming ocean currents are the global wind patterns, such as the trade winds, westerlies, and polar easterlies. These winds drive the surface waters of the oceans, creating ocean currents that can transport heat, nutrients, and marine life around the globe.
What are the most obvious characteristics of the ocean?
Depth, salinity, currents, waves, and brightness.
