Coriolis force : The rotation of the Earth causes an interesting phenomena on free moving objects on the Earth. Objects in the Northern Hemisphere are deflected to the right, while objects in the Southern Hemisphere are deflected to the left. The coriolis effect thus tries to force winds to shift towards the right or left
The Coriolis Effect determines/predicts the direction of the global atmospheric circulation currents like the westerlies, the polar winds or trade winds.
The Coriolis effect also affects the directions of the ocean currents.
Both of these have tremendous effects on climate.
