That means, the rotation is in the same direction as the hands of an analog clock or watch move. This is also known as rotating "to the right": if a circle rotates in a clockwise direction, then the upper part moves to the right.
The direction that a clocks hands move in.
Counter clockwise. This bolt has nothing special
The gyres rotate counter clockwise in the southern hemisphere, and clockwise in the northern hemisphere.

Clocks represent a sundial and the direction they move so we call that clockwise
To the right
Mars spins counter-clockwise, and its direction of orbiting the Sun is counter-clockwise from the Sun's viewpoint.
An angle is a measure of turn. the amount of turn is the magnitude, measured in degrees, and direction of turn can be clockwise or anti-clockwise. A positive angle turns in an anti-clockwise direction while a negative angle turns in a clockwise direction.
Referring to the direction of rotation, a clockwise direction indicates rotation in the same direction as the hands move on the face of a clock. Counterclockwise rotation is in the opposite direction.
anti clockwise or clockwise - it depends - in North America its clockwise but in the UK it is anti clockwise
Mars spins counter-clockwise, and its direction of orbiting the Sun is counter-clockwise from the Sun's viewpoint.
In the Northern hemisphere, the direction is clockwise... In the Southern, it turns anti-clockwise.
Counter clockwise means that a curve has "positive orientation". You are traveling in a counter clockwise direction if the "interior" of the curve is on the left of the direction you are traveling. You are traveling in a clockwise direction if the "interior" is located on the right. This notion of direction is important when doing certain advanced calculations, such as line integrals - evaluating in the wrong direction will possibly give you a negative answer!
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:)
