West Greenland Current
ID: west-greenland-current
The West Greenland Current is a significant oceanic current located off the western coast of Greenland. It is part of the larger North Atlantic Ocean circulation system and plays a crucial role in the regional marine ecosystem and climate. The current originates as a branch of the North Atlantic Current, which is a warm current that flows northward. The West Greenland Current itself flows southward along the western coast of Greenland, bringing colder water from the Arctic region downwards.
