Answer:

Energy is moved from areas of surplus to those of deficit, with warm currents transporting warm water polewards and cold currents taking colder water to lower latitudes. It holds onto this heat for longer than the land does and the ocean currents move this heat around, from the tropics to higher latitudes.
