“Why do some ocean currents carry warm water?”

Ocean currents carry water from all over the world. The sun’s rays in the equator tend to bring warm water in these currents. These Warm Ocean Currents play a decisive role in the climate of nearby landmasses. If a warm ocean current is proximate to a landmass, it will warm it up and add moisture to the atmosphere. Because of global water circulation, warm ocean currents are more likely to form on the eastern side of continents than on the western side.
