Hi!

I guess that Ms. Clapp explained to you how the circulation of the Atlantic Ocean is kind of like a conveyor belt. Surface water in the North Atlantic sinks and then moves south in the Ocean, and then surface water from the tropical ocean moves north. The warm surface water from the tropics brings heat to the North Atlantic region, including western Europe. And to picture in your mind how a conveyor belt works, you can think of a conveyor belt in a grocery store.

I hope this helps answer your question.
