Areas where warm and cold currents meet tend to have regular foggy conditions, as the overlying warm and cold air come in contact with each other.

they also tend to have high biological productivity, because plankton growth is encourage by the mixing of warm and cold currents.

Some of the world's most productive fishing grounds are located where warm and cold currents converge.

For example, where Labrador current (cold) and Gulf stream (warm) meet, a dense fog is there and it is one of the richest fishing grounds of the world.

When they meet the food of fishes is formed. Fishes come there on large number. And this helps fisherman to cart the fishes

Answer:

PLEASE MARK AS BRAINLIEST......

Explanation:

The meeting of the warm and the cool currents results in the formation of fog.

The ships face danger due to the fogs caused by the meeting of the warm currents

with the cold currents. This has resulted in the wreckage of many ships in the past as

they are not able to view icebergs due to poor visibility.

At times the meeting line of a warm and a cold current may result into a violent storm.

The hurricanes which occur off the coast of U.S.A. follow the line where the Gulf

Stream merges with the Labrador Current.

The mixing of warm and cold currents results in the deposition of planktons. Therefore,

at such places, fishes can be found in abundance.
