what effect describes the movement of wind by the earths continual movement?
greenhouse effect
climograph
coriolis effect
biosphere
The Coriolis Effect is caused by the Earth's rotation and affects the direction of wind - it deflects moving objects (like wind) to one side as they travel along a rotating reference frame (the Earth). The greenhouse effect relates to heat trapping in the atmosphere, a climograph is a graphical representation of climate data, and the biosphere is the global sum of all ecosystems.
