Question

Look at the map of ocean currents and answer the following :
(a) How does the Humboldt current affect the climate of the South American coast?
(b) In which oceans are counter equatorial currents not observed and why?
(c) Which currents are absent in northern part of the Indian Ocean and why?
(d) In which regions do the cold and warm ocean currents meet?

Answer 1

It has impacting cooling influence in climates of Galapagos Islands.

The ocean currents names are the seasonal directed movement of the sea water produced by the forces acting over the mean flow like wind, breaking waves, temperature, salinity, cabbing and much more.
