The North Atlantic Current is a vast, slow moving warm current. It is created from the Gulf Stream and the Labrador Current joining at southern Greenland, which creates the widening and slowing of the Gulf Stream. The North Atlantic Current splits near western Europe, one part creating the warm Norway Current flowing northward along the coast of Norway and the other creating the cold Canary Current deflecting southward, eventually warming and rejoining the North Equatorial Current.
