Oceanic currents describe the movement of water from one location to another. Currents are generally measured in meters per second or in knots (1 knot = 1.85 kilometers per hour or 1.15 miles per hour). Oceanic currents are driven by three main factors: 1. The rise and fall of the tides. Tides create a current in the oceans, which are strongest near the shore, and in bays and estuaries along the coast.
A map of all the large ocean currents of the world. All the world's currents on a continuous ocean map. An ocean current is a continuous movement of ocean water from one place to another. Ocean currents are created by wind, water temperature, salt content, and the gravity of the moon.The current's direction and speed depend on the shoreline and the ocean floor.ne major example of an ocean current is the Gulf Stream in the Atlantic Ocean. Ocean currents can be found on the water surface and deeper down. 1  Currents on the surface often depend on wind. 2  They travel clockwise in the northern hemisphere. 3  They travel counterclockwise in the southern hemisphere.
