Explanation:

Warm ocean currents flow away from the equatorial region on the western side of ocean basins.The Gulf Stream in the North Atlantic and the Kuroshio Current in the North Pacific are examples of warm currents. Of all the warm currents, the Gulf Stream has been studied most extensively. A narrow, intense flow of warm water, the Gulf Stream begins in the Caribbean Sea and follows the east coast of the United States northward around Cape Hatteras, North Carolina.There the current veers northeastward across the Atlantic Ocean, where it is called the North Atlantic Drift.The current carries warm water to Iceland and the British Isles. As a result, these places have warmer climates than they would otherwise. (Hence there are palm trees along the coast of Ireland.) The Gulf Stream forms the western and northern boundary of the Sargasso Sea, which is located in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean. An area of warm water and light winds, the Sargasso Sea has relatively calm seas. Great amounts of floating brown seaweed called sargassumare typically found on the surface water there. Similar conditions exist in other oceans, but nowhere are they as well developed as in the NorthAtlantic
