What else can I help you with?
What causes the ocean surface current direction?
i think wind is responsible for current
What ocean circles Antarctica?
The "Circumpolar Current" is the longest ocean current in the world and flows in an easterly direction.
What causes ocean surface currents?
A surface current is a current caused by wind direction
An area where a seasonal change in wind direction results in a change in the direction of an ocean current is near?
India
What map would be used to depict the speed and direction of ocean currents?
A current map, or ocean current map, would be used to depict the speed and direction of ocean currents. These maps illustrate the movement of surface ocean water across regions and are important for understanding ocean circulation patterns.
What type of current includes speed and direction component?
The type of current that includes speed and direction is known as an ocean current. Ocean currents are large-scale movements of seawater driven by factors such as wind, temperature, and salinity gradients. These currents play a crucial role in redistributing heat and nutrients around the world's oceans.
In which direction does the surface ocean current flow off the west coast of the lower US and upper Mexico?
westward
What would happen if salinity levels were drastically changed?
The life in the ocean would change and so would the gravity in the ocean. Therefore salinity is very important.
What causes the direction of current flow?
I assume you are referring to oceanic currents (instead of electrical current). Oceanic current is divided into 2 types: Surface Ocean Current -- affected by wind. Deep Ocean Current --cause by water density (mineral rich vs clearer water) and temperature gradient (differences in heat)
Define surface ocean currents?
Materials and energy
What ocean and direction is shortest from china to US?
the pacific ocean, and east direction.
What is a river of water in the ocean?
A river of water in the ocean might be a way to describe an ocean current, such as the Gulf Stream.
