MYP Unit Question: How do we use water?
Area of Interaction: Health and Social Education
Learner Profile: Thinker and Balanced
Standard: Recognize the significant role of water in the Earth’s processes.
Learning Standard: I’m learning about currents because they move water throughthe oceans.

Currents
stream-like movements of waterWhat are currents?
If it’s written in BLUE, write it down.

There are two types of currents:Surface Currents (near the surface)
Deep Currents (deep in the ocean)
No, you DON’T have to write this, it’s not written in BLUE.

Surface Currents Warm surface
currents flow from the equator to poles.
Cold surface currents flow from the poles toward the equator.STOP!! If you think about
it, it makes sense: Hot at equator and cold at poles

Surface Currents Controlled by three factors: 1. global winds 2. the Coriolis effect3. location of the
continents

Gulf Streamone of the longest surface currents—it transports 25 times more water than all the rivers in the world.

Some of the Aleutian Islands of Alaska are at the same latitude as England. Why would England’s climate be much warmer?

What if… What if you
made a raft out of balsa wood and tried to sail it from Peru to Indonesia?You would
eventually get there. The ocean currents and wind would move the raft.(Approx. 6000 miles)

Global winds• equator, winds blow east to west• poles, winds blow west to east
Trade WindsMerchants would“catch the wind”To assist them intheir trading.
Horse LatitudesAn area where the wind doesn’t blow

Coriolis EffectThe Earth’s rotation causes wind and surface currents to move in curved paths rather than in straight lines. The apparent curving of moving objects from a straight path due to the Earth’s rotation is called the Coriolis effect
Northern Hemisphere turns clockwise Southern Hemisphere turn counterclockwise.

Location of the ContinentsWhen surface currents meet continents, the currents deflect, or change direction.
![Page 14: Warm-up January 30 Name a physical feature on dry land that is similar to the Mid-Ocean Ridge. Volcanoes, Mountains, Trenches](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032518/56649ccb5503460f94994ff3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Deep-Ocean Currents• located far below the surface• forms in denser ocean water (more salt)
• density depends on temperature and salinity.

DEEP CURRENTS Caused by water of different
densities Warm water rises: Cooler water sinks Salty water sinks, less salty water rises

UpwellingThe process in which cold
nutrient-rich water from the deep ocean rises to replace warm surface water
Very important to tiny organisms like plankton. Fish and birds feed on these organisms.

El NinoExtra large waves
caused by upswellings.
Occurs every 2-7 years
Begins when an unusual pattern of winds forms over the western Pacific.
Warm water moves east.
