Low-latitude western boundary currents

ID: low-latitude-western-boundary-currents

Low-latitude western boundary currents are strong ocean currents that flow along the western boundaries of major ocean basins in tropical and subtropical regions. These currents are primarily driven by the trade winds and the Earth's rotation (Coriolis effect) and are characterized by their warm water temperatures and relatively narrow, fast-flowing nature.
