The three factors which control surface currents are the following:Global windsContinental deflection and temperatureThe Coriolis effect
The curved paths of global winds and surface currents are caused by warm air near the equator.
The Coriolis effect is the apparent deflection of moving objects (such as air currents or ocean currents) caused by the Earth's rotation. It causes objects to veer to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere. It influences global wind patterns and ocean currents.
Ocean currents form
Coriolis effect. It deflects air (or any moving object) to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere, influencing global wind patterns and ocean currents.
Which best explains the relationship between ocean currents and convection currents?(1 point) Responses Convection currents join with the Coriolis effect to create the winds that drive ocean currents. Convection currents join with the Coriolis effect to create the winds that drive ocean currents. Ocean currents rely on warm convection currents to strength the Coriolis effect. Ocean currents rely on warm convection currents to strength the Coriolis effect. Ocean currents create a Coriolis effect that increases convection currents. Ocean currents create a Coriolis effect that increases convection currents. Convection currents use the Coriolis effect to generate ocean currents.
They both have covection currents and effect the weather
global warming
The Coriolis effect causes moving objects on Earth, such as air currents and ocean currents, to appear to curve due to the rotation of the Earth.
coriolis effect
Low pressure air currents turn counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere due to the Coriolis effect. This effect is caused by the rotation of the Earth and influences the direction of winds on a global scale.
the two things that effect air pressure is force and area
