Ocean currents can be generated by wind, density differences in water masses caused by temperature and salinity variations, gravity, and events such as earthquakes along with various other geographical factors.
Currents are cohesive streams of seawater that circulate through the ocean.
Horizontal currents arise mainly due to friction between wind and water while vertical currents arise mainly due to density differences caused by temperature and salinity changes.
