Answer:
Thermohaline circulation (THC) is a part of the large-scale ocean circulation that is driven by global density gradients created by surface heat and freshwater fluxes.
Warm currents in many areas make local climate warmer than the latitude would indicate. Additionally, because warm ocean currents carry intensively evaporating warm waters, they may generate intense rainfall, also on the seashore.
