Answer 1

As you travel from 15°S latitude to 15°N latitude, you would expect to observe a change in **the wind direction**.

This is primarily due to the Coriolis effect, which causes winds in the Southern Hemisphere to curve to the left and winds in the Northern Hemisphere to curve to the right. This shift in latitude also affects the trade winds and can alter local wind patterns, leading to different weather phenomena.
