wind-driven and ocean-current circulations move warm water toward the poles and colder water toward the equator. The ocean can store much more heat than the land surfaces on the Earth. The majority of the thermal energy at the Earth’s surface is stored in the ocean. Thus, the absorption and movement of energy on the Earth is related to the ocean-atmosphere system.
El Nino and La Nina- La Nina is known for its unusually cold temperatures in the Equatoral Pacific. El Niño, is characterized by unusually warm ocean temperatures in the same region
