Explanation:
- The water at the ocean surface is moved primarily by winds. These gyres flow clockwise in Northern Hemisphere oceans and counterclockwise in Southern Hemisphere oceans because of the Coriolis Effect. Near the Earth's poles, there is a tendency for the gyres to flow in the opposite direction
