Question

The oceans and the seas have
a moderating influence upon
climate. The climate of a place
may be directly affected by
the currents flowing past it.
Warm ocean currents raise the
temperature of the coastal areas
while cold ocean currents lower
the temperature.​

Explain?

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.
