I chose this article because I am interested in how our ocean currents are formed/influenced and I plan to add more information to this article.

Evaluate the article
I think the lead/introduction of this article is great. They start off broad by giving a definition of ocean current and then describe the different types of common or widespread currents. They include valuable pictures and videos. The organization is logical and the tone is professional and the terminology is able to be understood by a wide audience, generally. One thing I would critique is some of the paragraphs later in the article (content). More specifically, due to a lack of information and some unclarity. There could be some additional information in the thermohaline circulation paragraph, connecting to how it is impacted by increased CO2 levels. Additionally, I believe the distribution section could be better introduced, rather than going straight into a long line of bullet points of all of the earth's currents.
