What is the Coreolis Affect?

The Coriolis effect is the apparent deflection of moving objects (such as air and water) on the surface of the Earth caused by the Earth's rotation. In the Northern Hemisphere, objects are deflected to the right, while in the Southern Hemisphere they are deflected to the left. This effect influences prevailing wind patterns and ocean currents.


What force creates winds?

Winds are created by the movement of air from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure. The pressure gradient force, along with the Coriolis effect and friction, all contribute to the formation of winds in the atmosphere.


The way Earth's rotation makes wind curve is called what?

It's called the 'Coriolis effect'. In the northern hemisphere, they rotate clockwise. South of the equator, they rotate counter-clockwise.
