Terrestrial climate is greatly influenced by ocean currents.
Ocean currents are driven by ocean temperature gradients.
If ocean surface temperatures change, this may impact on ocean temperature gradients, and hence ocean currents.
Areas generally warmed by warm currents, may become cooler if rising ocean temperatures reduce the velocity of these warm currents.

What is it about that don't you understand?
