Answer: There are various factors that affect how ocean currents are created including a combination of factors.
Surface currents are driven by many factors and these factors are wind, density, temperature and salinity.
The temperature of water can create the ocean current and some other factors like wind, density , salinity can also drive the ocean currents.
The water having high amount of salt in it or the water that is colder sinks in and the less saline water or warm water moves up, this creates ocean currents.
