Stunning visuals and animation of how the oceans change during the seasons over at http://www.gfdl.noaa.gov/visualizations-oceans

Example:

Video at http://www.gfdl.noaa.gov/flash-video?vid=cm24sst&title=Ocean Surface Temperature

Sea surface temperature (SST) simulation from GFDL's high resolution coupled atmosphere-ocean model. As the animation focuses on various locations of the world ocean we see the major current systems eg. the Agulhas current, Brazil current, Gulf Stream, Pacific Equatorial current, Kuroshio current. The small scale eddy structure is resolved and evident.
