What is similar about the factors that contribute to the formation of surface currents and deep currents.

Respuesta :

Density

DENSITY is the similar factor that contributes to the formation of surface currents and deep currents.

Explanation:

While salinity and temperatures affected ocean currents, they do so by affecting one property of the ocean waters that form the deep water and surface water currents. This is density.  The warmer the oceans waters, the less dense they become hence they upwell to become surface currents (and vice versa). The more concentrated, with salts, the ocean waters are, the denser they become hence sink to become deep oceans currents (and vice versa).
