Question

What is ocean current

Answer 1

An ocean current is a continuous movement of ocean water from one place to another. Ocean currents are created by wind, water temperature, salt content, and the gravity of the moon. The current's direction and speed depend on the shoreline and the ocean floor. They can flow for thousands of miles and are found in all the major oceans of the world. One major example of an ocean current is the Gulf Stream in the Atlantic Ocean. Ocean currents can be found on the water surface and deeper down.

Answer 2

a ocean current is a continuous directed movement of sea water generated by a number of forces acting upon the water including wind, the coriolis effect breaking waves cabbeling and temperature and salinity differences
