The Coriolis effect (also known as the Coriolis force) refers to the apparent deflection of objects (such as airplanes, wind, missiles, and ocean currents) moving in a straight path relative to the Earth's surface. Its strength is proportional to the speed of the Earth's rotation at different latitudes
