Counter-clockwise rotation of air currents?
its low pressure mass for a+
What are clockwise rotations of air currents?
Hig Pressure Mass
How do Low pressure air currents turn?
counter clockwise
How currents move in the different hemispheres?
North and south poles cause the clockwise rotation that then makes currents which come toward the land and the "repel" away
Different hemispheres-does water flow the opposite direction?
What you are talking about is the Coriolis effect. In the northern hemisphere currents rotate in a clockwise rotation and in the southern hemisphere current rotation is in an anti clockwise rotation.See related links below
What creates surface current?
Surface currents are created by air currents, earth's rotation, and positions of the continents.
What causes currents in the ocean and atmosphere?
Warm air rising and cold air sinking in combination with the rotation of the Earth cause the various currents in the atmosphere.
The curving of air currents due to the earth's rotation is known as?
coriolis effect
Why doesn't air move straight south or north?
Because the rotation of the earth 'drags' the air currents with it - creating eddys and currents with differing strengths and directions.
What is the possessive form of oceans?
The possessive form of the plural noun oceans is oceans'. Example: The oceans' currents north of the equator are a clockwise rotation.
What causes moving air and water to move clockwise in the northern hemisphere and counter clockwise in the southern hemisphere due to Earth's what?
its rotation
When the paths of winds and ocean currents seem to curve because of the earth's rotation is called?
It's called the 'Coriolis effect'. In the northern hemisphere, they rotate clockwise. South of the equator, they rotate counter-clockwise.
