What direction do the ocean currents move in the southern hemisphere?
The Coriolis effect holds that because the Earth is spinning, surfacewaters move in a clockwise direction in the Northern Hemisphere and in acounterclockwise direction in the Southern Hemisphere.
Currents in the southern hemisphere flow what direction?
In the southern hemisphere, ocean currents flow clockwise due to the Coriolis effect.
Which are cold water currents northern hemisphere or southern hemisphere?
northern hemisphere
Which way do surface currents in the southern hemisphere flow?
Counter-clockwise
What direction do the ocean currents move in the northern hemisphere?
clockwise
Which way do currents move in the northern hemisphere southern hemisphere?
Currents in the Northern Hemisphere move in a clockwise direction. Currents in the Southern Hemisphere move in a counter clockwise direction.
Which way do currents rotate in the southern hemisphere?
The gyres rotate counter clockwise in the southern hemisphere, and clockwise in the northern hemisphere.
What directions do ocean currents move?
currents rise and then go down ,which it in cycle to add on to the above; the currents move clockwise in the northern hemisphere and counter-clockwise in the southern hemisphere
What direction do surface currents move?
The surface currents move in a clockwise direction in the Northern hemisphere, and move in a counter clockwise direction in the Southern hemisphere! Hope it helped:)
What direction do the ocean currents move in the southern hemisphere?
The Coriolis effect holds that because the Earth is spinning, surfacewaters move in a clockwise direction in the Northern Hemisphere and in acounterclockwise direction in the Southern Hemisphere.
Which of the following statements IS NOT true concerning ocean currents?
The gyres move counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern hemisphere
How does currents affect the coriolis effect?
The coriolis effect makes ocean currents move in a curved path.
Which are cold water currents northern hemisphere or southern hemisphere?
northern hemisphere
What hemisphere does currents go clockwise?
Wind and ocean currents generally rotate clockwise in the southern hemisphere.
How do currents in the northern hemisphere differ from the currents in the southern hemisphere?
By the flow of each bed then multiply xyd dhfa
How do winds create currents?
Ocean currents in the northern hemisphere curve to the right and currents in the southern hemisphere curve to the left.Because the Earth rotates, currents do not travel in straightlines.
The circulation of ocean currents in the Northern Hemisphere is generally?
clockwiseThe circulation of ocean currents in the Southern Hemisphere is generally:counter clockwise
