This is the time it takes for ocean water to complete one full circle around the Earth. The oceans represent 70% of the surface of the globe. The oceans are connected by a massive circulatory current under deep water. This planetary current pattern, called the ocean treadmill, slowly moves water around the world. A complete circuit lasts 1,000 years.
