The Coriolis Effect refers to the phenomenon caused by the rotation of the Earth, which results in moving objects, such as winds and ocean currents, being deflected to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere. This effect is not related to changes in humidity levels, air pressure, or precipitation leaving clouds, but rather it influences the direction of wind patterns and ocean currents as they are affected by the Earth's rotation.
What is the Coriolis Effect?
Changes in humidity levels in the air
Winds caused by the Earth's rotation
Winds changed by air pressure
When precipitation leaves the cloud
