Oceans And Seas Questions
The East Australian Current is a warm ocean current that flows southward along the eastern coast of Australia. It is a significant part of the South Pacific Gyre and is known for its role in the migration of marine species, such as the famous journey of the clownfish in the movie "Finding Nemo." The current is influenced by the trade winds and the rotation of the Earth, and it plays a crucial role in shaping the climate and marine ecosystems along the Australian coastline.
