Surface currents flow through all ocean basins in the top few hundred meters of water. These surface currents are caused by wind blowing horizontally across the water. These surface currents form **gyres**, which are large systems of rotating ocean currents that are located all around the earth. Gyres are typically found in the major ocean basins and play a significant role in regulating climate and marine ecosystems.
