Shallow currents vs.
Deep currents
Gyre (guy-err)Gyres move on the surface
of the ocean and move in the direction of prevailing winds.
Shallow water currents
Shallow water currents are formed mostly along the paths of these gyres.
Shallow water currents move in the direction of winds on the surface of the ocean.
Deep Water CurrentsDeep currents are deep under
the sea and behave like convection currents.
Hot water travels toward the surface
Cold sinks to the bottom
