Ocean currents (洋流) are sometimes called “rivers in the sea ”. One of these “rivers ” in the Atlantic is called the Gulf Stream (墨西哥湾流). It is a current of warm water. Another is the Labrador Current---cold water coming down from the Arctic (北冰洋). Ocean currents affects...

erosion and the deposit of sediment on the deep sea floor, but I’m confused, cause, well, for that to happen, there would have to be some kind of force down there moving the mud or sand or whatever, right But I thought there weren’t any waves or currents that deep in the ocean...
Do deep ocean currents have a beginning? They actually do. We can say that these currents start in the colder regions of the planet, such as near both the North and South Poles. It is here that ocean waters are cold enough to freeze. Think of all the glaciers that form at the North...
How deep are deep ocean currents? The Role of Ocean Currents: Ocean currents play an important role in maintaining life on Earth. Ocean currents help distribute pollution and waste, regulate the temperature and climates, and help some organisms spread and reproduce. ...
A decline in ocean circulation is expected to stagnate the bottom of the oceans and generate further impacts affecting the marine and climatic ecosystems for many centuries.

ocean currents forming part of the global ocean circulation. Tidal currents could, in principle, produce a radial-like dispersal owing to their periodicity; however, by considering the trajectories of particles in a typical tidal field (see Supplementary Note1), we determine that tidal reversal ...
