Explanation:

Ocean currents influence the temperature of the region they travel through. Warm currents increase the temperature of the coasts along which they move. Sea breezes that blow over warm currents get warmed in turn and absorb moisture. Then they carry the warmth and moisture to neighboring coastal areas. For example, the North Atlantic Drift, carrying warm equatorial waters northwards, increases temperatures along the coast of north-western Europe and helps to keep ports along these coasts open (i.e., not frozen) throughout the year. On the other hand, winds that blow over cold currents become cold and dry. Along the western coasts of most land masses, these dry, cold winds have led to the development of deserts like the Atacama (South America) and the Namib (Africa) deserts.
