The direction that an ocean current travels can be altered by the movement of the Earth's rotation on its axis. This is known as the Coriolis effect.

<h3>What is Coriolis effect in simple terms?</h3>

Coriolis effect is the result of Earth's rotation on weather patterns and ocean currents. The Coriolis effect makes storms swirl in the clockwise direction in the Southern hemisphere while on the other hand, storms counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere. This effect can cause change in the direction of the ocean current due to the rotation on its axis.

So we can conclude that the direction that an ocean current travels can be altered by the movement of the Earth's rotation on its axis. This is known as the Coriolis effect.
