Emergence definition

The Antilles Current is a highly variable surface ocean current of warm water that flows northeasterly past the island chain that separates the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, driven by the interaction of energy with the particles that make up the ocean, and the resulting flow of water and the dynamic changes within the system.
