Ocean water is separated into different types: what oceanographers call "water masses", based on the meteorologists' term "air masses." Water masses are defined by their temperature and salinity balance. These water masses acquire their temperature/salinity balance at the surface and then sink down into the deeper levels of the ocean while maintaining that balance. Since this relationship is slow to degrade, it can be used to track large sections of water through the ocean from a common source.

Do the oceans have boundaries or do they run into each other?

Which oceans are in immediate contact with 3 other oceans?
In fact, all 5 oceans, the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, Southern and Arctic Oceans are in immediate contact with each other.
What is an antipodal arrangement of oceans and continents?
An antipodal arrangement of oceans and continents refers to the opposite points on Earth's surface that are directly across from each other. For example, the Pacific Ocean is antipodal to the Indian Ocean. This concept is used in geography to study the relationships between different regions and their corresponding antipodes.
What is the different between the four biggest oceans?
The amount of water in each.
How do the three magnesium isotopes differ from each other?

Do all currents have the same characteristics?
No. Electric currents differ quite significantly from ocean currents.
