Question
b. air travels all the way across the globe. a. what impact does the coriolis effect have on the direction the air travels? (3 points) b. what is the name of one convection cell that forms because of the coriolis effect? (4 points) c. how does the air move in that convection cell? (8 points)
A. The Coriolis effect deflects moving air to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere, changing its straight - line path.
B. One such convection cell is the Hadley cell. It forms due to differential heating at the equator and the poles along with the Coriolis effect.
C. In the Hadley cell, warm air rises near the equator, moves poleward in the upper atmosphere, cools, and then sinks in the subtropics. It then moves back towards the equator near the surface.
