Global winds affect the heating of the Earth’s surface. They also affect the currency of the oceans surface.

These global wind systems, in turn, drive the oceans' surface currents. Unequal heating of the Earth's surface also forms large global wind patterns. In area near the equator, the sun is almost directly overhead for most of the year. Warm air rises at the equator and moves toward the poles ((from google))
