Although the coriolis effect affects the 2 hemispheres by making them move in a circular motion. It affect the northern hemisphere by making it move in a right circular motion and the southern the other way.

What apparent shift in wind direction that is caused by the earth rotation?
Coriolis effect
Does the coriolis effect on the direction you are sailing?
Yes!
Why water sinks in antyclock wise direction in northen hemispear?
It is a thing called the Coriolis effect. The Coriolis effect is an observed reversal in spin of "things" like water, storm systems, etc. (Toilets in the Northern Hemisphere spin in the opposite direction of those in the Southern) To better understand this effect, observe global weather patterns. High and Low pressure systems in the Northern hemisphere spin Clockwise and Counterclockwise, respectively. It is the opposite in the Southern Hemisphere, because of Earth's direction of rotation. This is the Coriolis Effect.
What is the effect of Earth's rotation on the direction of winds and currents.?
Coriolis effect
What is the effect of earths rotations on the direction of winds and currents?
The Coriolis effect
At which location does the coriolis force have the least effect on wind?
The Coriolis effect has the least effect on winds in equatorial regions and the most effect on winds in polar regions. Coriolis effect deflects winds to the right of their initial direction in the northern hemisphere and left of their initial direction in the southern hemisphere.
The coriolis effect refers to a change in direction caused by?
The Coriolis effect is caused by the Earth's roration.
What would happen without the coriolis effect?
Without the Coriolis effect, air would simply flow from low pressure areas to high pressure areas. The Coriolis effect causes deflection in the global wind patterns.
How does Coriolis Effect affect ocean circulation?
the Coriolis Effect affect ocean circulation because weather movement are rotating with the earth.
What effect of earth rotation on the direction of wind and current is called?
Coriolis effect
What is the effect of earths rotation on the direction of winds and currents called?
