An Ocean Current . is a directed, continuous movement of ocean water generated by various forces.. 2. Currents are caused by various factors:. Temperature. Different salinity levels. The water in the ocean moves in giant streams called currents.. Scientists place ocean currents into two major categories: surface currents and deep currents.. Surface . Currents. Ocean currents that occur at 328 feet deep or above. Transmit Antenna sends 5 MHz or 60m electromagnetic (em) waves seaward Nauset Nantucket Coastal Ocean Dynamics Radar (CODAR) Mapping of New England Surface Ocean Currents Ocean Observation Laboratory (OCEANOL) Fig 1 Principle of operation Bragg EffectThe Bragg Effect describes the amplification effectof a back-scattered electromagnetic wave havingtwice the wavelength as the ocean wave eg for a 30MHz radar s For much of human history, knowledge of the ocean and its currents was not recorded for many reasons - most sailors could not write and information was passed orally..
