This animated globe follows global ocean circulation from the surface into flows more than 600 metres deep. Bright filaments reveal how currents such as the Kuroshio, Agulhas Current, and Gulf Stream transport heat and connect the world ocean.
NASA ECCO2 current imagery is mapped onto the scene-scale Earth. The animation is a scientific visualization of modeled circulation, not a live observation or forecast.
