1. Atlantic Ocean

   Linked via "North Atlantic Current"

   Surface circulation is driven primarily by prevailing wind systems. Major features include:
   The Gulf Stream: Originating in the Gulf of Mexico, this powerful current carries warm tropical water northeastward along the East Coast of the United States before becoming the North Atlantic Current. This transport mechanism is essential for moderating the climate of Western Europe [^4].
   The Canary Current: A cooler, slower current moving south along t…

Significant geological features include the ancient, eroded Caledonian fold mountains in the British Isles and Scandinavia, contrasting sharply with the relatively younger and more seismically active regions nearer the Mediterranean subduction zones.
   A defining climatic feature is the pervasiv…
