As you travel from 15°S latitude to 15°N latitude, you would expect to observe changes in **the wind direction**.
The Coriolis effect causes winds in the Northern Hemisphere to deflect to the right and in the Southern Hemisphere to deflect to the left, leading to differences in wind patterns and directions as you cross the equator.
