What are surface currents?
Surface currents are the horizontal movement of seawater at the ocean’s surface. They are powerful currents that are driven by the wind, and they help to spread heat around the world. Because the Earth is spinning, the currents to the north of the equator move to the right, or clockwise direction. The currents to the south of the equator move to the left or anti clockwise direction.
