current from Il ions flows toward
the equator alo 6ttom Of the ocean
by its gfeaisr ~ By the heat Of the
sun the surface wafer of the equatorial
regions becomes warm, and flowing away
toward the poles, allows the cold water at
the bottom TO gradually rise to the surface
and become warm, thus keeping up the con
tipued circulation Of the waters Of the
