Detailed explanation-1: -The North Atlantic Current (NAC), also known as North Atlantic Drift and North Atlantic Sea Movement, is a powerful warm western boundary current within the Atlantic Ocean that extends the Gulf Stream northeastward.
Detailed explanation-2: -North Atlantic Current, also called North Atlantic Drift, part of a clockwise-setting ocean-current system in the North Atlantic Ocean, extending from southeast of the Grand Bank, off Newfoundland, Canada, to the Norwegian Sea, off northwestern Europe.
Detailed explanation-3: -The North Atlantic Drift’s unusually warm waters help to moderate the climate of Western Europe, resulting in milder winters than would otherwise be expected at that latitude. The UK and other parts of Europe would be as cold as Canada at the same latitude if the mild North Atlantic Drift did not exist.
