How do the oceans control our climate?
Oceans control the Earth’s weather as they heat and cool the land, humidify and dry the air, and control wind speed and direction. The water from the oceans evaporates to form the clouds that bring us rain. Warm currents can make winters milder, cool currents can make summers more pleasant. These are just some ways in which oceans have a direct effect on our climate.
