cold water flows in the ocean to the coast of California

How is an ocean current considered to be warm or cold?
Warm or cold defines the temperature of the water. In general warm currents flow north and cold currents flow south. That makes sense. Also warm currents flow on the surface and cold currents flow deep since cold water is denser than warm water.
Definition of cold water current?
A cold water current is a flow of cooler ocean water that circulates in a particular direction. These currents have a lower temperature than the surrounding water and can influence climate, marine life, and weather patterns in the regions they flow through.
Are the ocean currents in the pacific warm or cold?
Both: Tidal currents that flow from the tropics will be warm, and if they flow from the poles will be cool.
What is cold-water currents and climate?
Cold water currents are currents which flow deep along the ocean floor. Cold water currents can cause temperature changes which in return can have a major impact on the overall climate of the Earth.
What direction does cold water flow?
Cold water typically flows downward due to its higher density compared to warm water. In natural bodies of water, cold water can also flow laterally in currents or streams, influenced by gravitational forces and the topography of the environment. In ocean currents, cold water often moves from polar regions towards the equator, while warmer water moves poleward.
What is current and climate?
Cold water currents are currents which flow deep along the ocean floor. Cold water currents can cause temperature changes which in return can have a major impact on the overall climate of the Earth.
Can water flow into the ocean?
yes
What is the cause of surface currents?
The circulation of cold and warm water between the poles and the equator, and the rotation of the earth, cause ocean currents to flow.
Is there a water flow on Neptune?
No, its to cold
What are three ways earth depends on the ocean?
For the water and the salt. We can learn from the salt of the ocean. The rivers would have a dead end and be a box and over flow when it rained and would flood.
What is surface flow?
Surface flow is when water from the rain runs on the surface into the ocean.
Can water from Pacific Ocean flow into Atlantic Ocean?
yes through a canal
