What causes vertical ocean currents? The temperature and salinity of ocean water. Where is ocean water the densest. The bottom. As you go deeper in the ocean, the water is colder and less salty. False. Due to the Coriolis Effect, water in the northern hemisphere moves clockwise. A horizontal movement of ocean water that is caused by wind and that occurs at or near the ocean's surface. Surface Current. Ocean water is more dense than fresh water at the same temperature due to differences in:   Salinity. Deep Ocean currents are a result of Density. Two types of water currents are surface and deep. Gyre. The movement of deep, cold, nutrient filled water to the surface of the ocean is.. Upwelling. What affects the density of water? Both A and B. Why is upwelling important? Upwelling provides nutrient rich water that sustains life. Currents that occur at or near the surface of the ocean are called  Surface Currents. Surface currents are mainly caused by Wind. Regular movements of water far below the oceans surface are called Deep Currents. Salinity is The salt content of a substance. ______ causes surface currents. wind. ______ causes deep ocean currents density differences. Gyres in the southern hemisphere are surface currents that turn _________ due to the Coriolis Effect. counterclockwise. Movements of ocean water in a continuous flow are called? ocean currents
