কারণ ও প্রেক্ষাপট

Ocean currents are persistent, directed movements of seawater produced by wind, density differences, gravity, Earth's rotation and basin boundaries. The governing relationship is: Surface currents respond to wind stress and Coriolis deflection; thermohaline circulation responds to temperature-salinity density contrasts and sinking or upwelling.

কীভাবে কাজ করে

Surface currents respond to wind stress and Coriolis deflection; thermohaline circulation responds to temperature-salinity density contrasts and sinking or upwelling.

মূল তথ্য

• Warm currents generally move poleward and cold currents equatorward in major gyres.
• Upwelling brings nutrient-rich deep water to the surface.
• Western boundary currents are typically narrow and swift compared with eastern boundary currents.
