The apparent shift in wind direction that is caused by the earths rotation is called the?
Coriolis effect
What is caused by uneven heating of earth and it's atmosphere?
The rotation of the earth is not at a perfect angle, so some places get more heat than othersand some places don't even get heat.
Is Coriolis effect caused by tornadoes?

Caused by the rotation of the Earth?
-- day and night -- rotation of atmospheric pressure systems -- rotation of the plane of Foucault's pendulum -- rotation of ocean eddies and currents -- apparent rising and setting of sky objects
Is it true that the increased cooling that a wind can cause is called the Coriolis effect?
No. The Coriolis effect is the deflection of wind and ocean currents caused by Earth's rotation. The increased cooling from wind is called wind chill.

What are ocean and wind currents both caused by?
un-even isolation
What are air currents caused by temperature called?
Wind
What is the fuel source of wind?
The wind is caused by a combination of the Earth's rotation and the heat of the sun causing convection currents in the atmosphere.
