Question

Ocean Current affect navigation.

Answer 1

Answer:

Ocean currents act much like a conveyor belt, transporting warm water and precipitation from the equator toward the poles and cold water from the poles back to the tropics. Thus, ocean currents regulate global climate, helping to counteract the uneven distribution of solar radiation reaching Earth's surface.

Answer 2

Answer:

An ocean current has a well defined path and momentum formed by the combined effect of Earth's rotation, pressure gradient and wind speed. ... If the current direction isn't where the ship is headed, the ship has to consume more fuel to provide the necessary thrust to counter the current's momentum.
