Q. Which of the following statements are true about the definition and the effect of prevailing winds on ocean temperature?
- Prevailing winds are those surface winds that blow intermittently over a particular ocean on the Earth.
- If prevailing winds are onshore, they lead to increase in the temperature of ocean water.
- Offshore prevailing winds decrease the temperature of ocean water.
