Ocean currents - Surface ocean currents can occur on local and global scales and are typically wind-driven, resulting in both horizontal and vertical water movement. Deep ocean currents are density-driven and differ from surface currents in scale, speed, and energy. Water density is affected by the temperature, salinity (saltiness), and depth of the water. The colder and saltier the ocean water, the denser it is. The greater the density differences between different layers in the water column, the greater the mixing and circulation. Density differences in ocean water contribute to a global-scale circulation system, also called the global conveyor belt. The global conveyor belt includes both surface and deep ocean currents that circulate the globe in a 1,000-year cycle. The oceanâs global conveyor belt plays a key role in distributing heat energy and regulating weather and climate. The driving force behind this circulation system is

The diagrams show objectsâ gravitational pull toward each other. which statement describes the relationship between diagram x and y? gravity attracts only larger objects toward one another. gravity attracts larger objects only if they are close to one another. if the masses of the objects increase, then the force between them also increases. if distance between the objects increases, then the amount of force also increases.
