Ocean currentsDriven By Wind they move warm water away from the equator and cold water towards the equator. (Label warm currents on your map that move near America and south america)

There are 5 major circular currents found in the ocean called gyres

The warm N. Atlantic current provides warm air for England, while the cold S. Atlantic current keeps South Africa cool.( Circle England in Red and South Africa in blue)

Winds blowing off of a coast will remove the surface layer and the cold water rises to take its place bringing important nutrients. Circle where this occurs the most

Evaporation and cold water- causes an increase in salinity causes water to sink, upwelling causes water to rise which creates a network of world wide currents called the
