For a UTP implementation in a LAN, you must determine the EIA/TIA type of cable needed and also whether to use a straight-through or crossover cable. This topic describes the characteristics and uses of straight-through and crossover cables, as well as the types of connectors used when UTP is implemented in a LAN.
Surface currents are generated largely by wind. Their patterns are determined by wind direction, Coriolis forces from the Earthâs rotation, and the position of landforms that interact with the currents. Surface wind-driven currents generate upwelling currents in conjunction with landforms, creating deepwater currents.
Wind Driven Surface Currents: Gyres Background. In this section, we examine the characteristics of wind-driven surface-ocean currents, components of the huge gyres that dominate the central regions of the open ocean. Western boundary currents are the strongest segments of these gyres and often spawn warm- and cold-core eddies known as rings.
