The ocean has an interconnected current, or circulation, system powered by wind, tides, the Earth's rotation (Coriolis effect), the sun (solar energy), and water density differences. The topography and shape of ocean basins and nearby landmasses also influence ocean currents

ANSWER:

  • Ocean currents at the surface are mostly influenced by the wind.
  • These types of currents flow at an angle of the driving wind and develop clockwise and anti-clockwise spiral effects in the Northern and Southern hemisphere respectively.

EXPLANATION:

  • An ocean current is the movement of the seawater at a continuous and directed pattern due to various factors such as wind, temperature, braking waves, and salinity differences.
  • Ocean currents flow in horizontal movements. There are two types of ocean currents: Surface ocean current and Depp Ocean current.
