Answer
Coriolis force is the force generated due to rotation of the Earth on its inclined axis. Due to Coriolis force, moving objects (winds and water currents) tend to deflect to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere. The deflection is least at the Equator and greatest at the poles.
