How does earths rotation affects the patterns of surface currents?
It causes the currents to move in curved paths instead of going in a straight line, which is known a the Coriolis effect.

How are surface currents form?
wind.Surface currants form by global winds, Coriolis effect (earth's rotation) and continental deflections (surface currents meet continents they change direction).
