Under which branch of oceanography would one study the Coriolis Effect?

Geological Oceanography

Chemical Oceanography

Physical Oceanography

Marine Science

Option (C)

Explanation:

Physical oceanography is the branch of oceanography that deals with the study of all the physical processes that take place within an ocean. It illustrates how the waves in the oceans are generated, the factors that affect them, tidal effects, effects of Coriolis force, transportation of sediments from the oceans to the coastal regions and again back to the oceans. It also studies the changing effects of latitudes and interaction patterns between the ocean waves and the atmosphere.

coriolis force is the force that initiates due to the rotation of earth. It creates a deflection towards the right while moving in its wind direction.

Hence this Coriolis effect is studied in the field of physical oceanography.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

The answer is option C - Physical Oceanography.

One can study the Coriolis Effect under Physical Oceanography.

Physical oceanography is defined as the study of the physical conditions and physical processes within the ocean. It specifically studies the motion and physical properties of ocean waters.
