A main deep ocean current flows through all the world's oceans and is known as the <a href="/wiki/Thermohaline_circulation" title="Thermohaline circulation">thermohaline circulation</a> or global conveyor belt.

Both these factors make it denser, and the water sinks. From the deep sea near Greenland, such water flows southwards between the continental landmasses on either side of the Atlantic. When it reaches the Antarctic, it is joined by further masses of cold, sinking water and flows eastwards. It then splits into two streams that move northwards into the Indian and Pacific Oceans. Here it is gradually warmed, becomes less dense, rises towards the surface and loops back on itself. It takes a thousand years for this circulation pattern to be completed.<sup id="cite_ref-NOAAcurrent_63-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-NOAAcurrent-63"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>59<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Besides gyres, there are temporary surface currents that occur under specific conditions.
