Question
Why do we find commercial fishing banks at places where warm and cold currents meet each other?
Answer
Commercial fishing banks are found at places where warm and cold currents meet each other because the meeting point of these currents results in an increase in the concentration of plankton and other nutrients. Plankton serves as a food source for small fish, which in turn attracts larger fish and other marine animals. The mixing of the warm and cold currents creates a dynamic ecosystem that supports a diverse range of marine life, making it an ideal location for commercial fishing. The nutrient-rich water also helps to sustain the fish populations, making it easier for fishermen to catch them.
