Circular currents, also known as EDDIES, are a type of water flow that occurs in oceans, rivers, and other bodies of water. EDDIES are created when the main current of a body of water is disrupted, resulting in a swirling pattern of water that moves in a circular motion. These currents can be caused by a variety of factors, including wind, tides, and changes in temperature. EDDIES can have a significant impact on the environment, as they can transport nutrients and pollutants to different areas.
