North Atlantic current
From Freepedia
(Redirected from North Atlantic Current)
The North Atlantic current is a powerful warm ocean current that continues the Gulf Stream northeast. It splits in two west of the British Isles. One branch (the Canary current) goes south while the other continues north along the coast of northwestern Europe where it has a considerable warming influence on the climate.
Climate change, especially global warming, may have a significant effect on the current.
