no, they are caused by the moon, honestly

The Coriolis effect
The Coriolis effect
Foucault Pendulum: The changing direction of the pendulum's swing demonstrates the rotation of Earth beneath it. Coriolis Effect: The deflection of moving objects like air currents and ocean currents is caused by Earth's rotation. Day-night cycle: The cycle of day and night is a direct result of Earth's rotation on its axis.
It's called the 'coriolis' effect.
Ocean currents cannot simply stop. They are driven mainly by weather systems, heat and the earths rotation
The Coriolis effect is caused by the rotation of the Earth. As the Earth spins on its axis, moving objects are deflected to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere due to the Coriolis force. This effect influences ocean currents, winds, and aircraft flight paths.
The earths rotation causes day and night, wind, tides and ocean currents and its also responsible for the different seasons.
