English: This map shows the pattern of thermohaline circulation also known as "meridional overturning circulation". This collection of currents is responsible for the large-scale exchange of water masses in the ocean, including providing oxygen to the deep ocean. The entire circulation pattern takes ~2000 years.

This meteorology image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with ((vector version available|new image name)).
It is recommended to name the SVG file “Thermohaline Circulation 2.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.
