The flow of ocean currents is influenced by a combination of factors such as the Earth’s rotation (Coriolis effect), wind patterns, temperature, and the shape of Coastlines. In the Northern Hemisphere, the Coriolis effect causes currents to move clockwise due to the deflection caused by the Earth's rotation. In the Southern Hemisphere, the Coriolis effect causes currents to move counterclockwise.
North Equatorial flow clockwise and southern counter-clockwise.
clockwise north of the equator and counterclockwise in the south.
Tornadoes in the northern hemisphere usually spin counterclockwise, while those south of the equator usually spin clockwise.
Hurricanes are in a class of storm called tropical cyclones. Such storms rotate counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern. In a strict sense, the term hurricane is only applied to tropical cyclones in parts of the northern hemisphere, so they do rotate counterclockwise.
North of the equator, yes. South of the equator, they spin clockwise. Wind direction is affected by the spin of the Earth.
North Equatorial flow clockwise and southern counter-clockwise.
it just does... google it if ur curious
The South Pacific Gyre and the Indian Ocean Gyre have clockwise circulation patterns, while the North Pacific Gyre and the South Atlantic Gyre have counterclockwise circulation patterns.
clockwise north of the equator and counterclockwise in the south.
Tornadoes in the northern hemisphere usually spin counterclockwise, while those south of the equator usually spin clockwise.
The hurricane spins counterclockwise due to the Coriolis force In the north if Canada was in the south it would spin clockwise. this happens because as the earth spins it veers the winds in the north west and in the south east
it is completely subjective. looking down on the north pole, counterclockwise. looking down on the south pole clockwise
The Earth spins counterclockwise so no, it spins from west to east. Counter clockwise if you are standing on the north pole. Clockwise if you stand on the south pole. Either way it spins from west to east.
In the Northern Hemisphere, air deflects to the right (clockwise) due to the Coriolis effect. In the Southern Hemisphere, air deflects to the left (counterclockwise) due to the same effect. This phenomenon is a result of Earth's rotation causing moving objects to deviate from a straight path.

counter clockwise
