The apparent curving of the winds is called?
the Coriolis effect
This effect causes winds to turn westward in the lower northern hemisphere?
Coriolis or Coriolis effect
How did the Coriolis effect influence winds?
it affected influince winds because coriolis can go out of control so it makes winds stronger.
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.
Which of these three choices Pressure gradient forces or Coriolis Effect or Humidity has the smallest impact on winds?
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
Which deflects winds to the east and west?
Coriolis effect
What causes shifting of global winds?
Coriolis effect
Coriolis effect global winds and continental deflections are all factors that control?
Coriolis effect global winds and continental deflections are all factors that control surface currents.
What is the force that deflects prevailing winds?
The Coriolis effect is the force that deflects prevailing winds
What is the effect of earths rotation on the direction of winds and currents called?
