ocean currents

oceanic currents are found all over the globe and very in size.its also in indian ocean and currents in the pacific.

in addition to their verying size and strength, ocean currents different types. they can be either surface or deep water.

surface currents are those found in the upper 400 meters (1,300) of the ocean . The speed of surface currents is greatest closer to the ocean's surface and decreases at about 100 meters (328 Ft) below the surface.

mounds in the water form in areas where the water meets land. Gravity then pushes this water down slope on the mounds and creates currents.
