Currents tend to consist
of large cyclical formations with opposite direction of
rotation in the northern and southern hemispheres.
They range in speed up to about 2.5 m/s. They
are caused by a number of factors, such as wind,
convection, density differences due to variations in
salinity, and the Coriolis force. The chart below will
give you a general feel for the arrangement of currents:
