List of Ocean Currents of the World
Oceans are the lifeline of the Earth and humankind because it plays an important role in the Earth's climate and in global warming. It produces over half of the world's oxygen and absorbs 50 times more carbon dioxide than our atmosphere.
What is Ocean Currents?
The Ocean Currents consists of horizontal and vertical components of the circulation system of ocean waters that is produced by gravity, wind friction, and water density variation in different parts of the ocean. They are classified into three part i.e. Drift, Current and Stream on the basis of the direction of flow, speed and shape. It may be cold, warm and hot. Warm ocean currents originate near the equator and move towards the poles or higher latitudes while cold currents originate near the poles or higher latitudes and move towards the tropics or lower latitude. The current's direction and speed depend on the shoreline and the ocean floor. They can flow for thousands of miles and are found in all the major oceans of the world. The list of Ocean Currents of the world is given below along with their nature.
