What deflects moving particles such as air to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere. This is caused by Earth’s rotation.
Who is the Coriolis effect?The Coriolis effect describes the pattern of deflection taken by objects not firmly connected to the ground as they travel long distances around and above the Earth. The Coriolis effect is responsible for many large-scale weather patterns. The key to the Coriolis effect lies in the Earth's rotation.
