Currents differ primarily in their origin, direction, speed, and the medium through which they flow. In water bodies, for example, currents can be driven by wind, temperature gradients, or salinity differences, while in the atmosphere, they are influenced by temperature and pressure variations. Additionally, ocean currents are often deeper and can travel vast distances, whereas air currents are typically more variable and influenced by local weather conditions. These differences impact ecosystems, climate patterns, and navigation in both air and water.
What else can I help you with?
How currents move in the different hemispheres?
North and south poles cause the clockwise rotation that then makes currents which come toward the land and the "repel" away
The deep water currents makes up what?
The deep water currents makes up what?
What are causes of the 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
How deep are currents and surface currents alike and how are they different?
They are both currents nut have different locations or spots they are from.
What type of currents are currents that involve warm water flowing in different directions at different speeds close to the top of oceans?
surface currents
What makes tectonic plates?
convection currents :)
How many potentially different currents are there in the circuit shown?
In the circuit shown, there are potentially three different currents.
How are convection currents in the mantle and in the oceans similar How are they different?
The ocean currents are colder than the currents in the mantle,and the are located in different areas.
Blank currents are currents that involve warm water flowing in different directions at different speeds close to the top of oceans?
SURFACE
How salinity affects deep currents?
it makes cold water rise 2 the surface.and that's how sailinity affects currents.
What drives Antarctic circumpolar currents?
The natural phenomenon of different water temperatures drive the currents.
How does the coriolis effect make oceans currents appear to move?
The coriolis effect makes ocean currents move in a curved path.
