Across
- 4. The winds that blow from west to east at middle latitudes
- 8. ocean circulations driven by differences in water density, due to variations in water temperature and salinity, rather than by the wind or tides
- 9. A large, nearly circular system of wind driven surface currents that center around latitude 30* in both hemispheres
Down
- 1. steady winds that blow from east to west toward the equator, replacing the hot air that rises at the equator
- 2. effect the tendency of objects moving large distances on earths surface to bend to the right in the Northern Hemisphere to the left in the Southern
- 3. process by which colder water rich in nutrients rises from a lower to a higher depth
- 5. Large scale changes in atmospheric and ocean current patterns in which, among other things, warm surface water in the pacific ocean moves further to the east than normal
- 6. variable winds that blow at high latitudes
- 7. movement of air over earths surface
- 9. the current that carries water from the tropics and bringing warm water to europe
