EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Coriolis Effect" beautifully illustrates the complex phenomenon that influences the motion of free-moving objects in both the northern and southern hemispheres of our planet. Created by talented artist Carlos Clarivan, this computer-generated print showcases a globe against a pristine white background. The artwork highlights how the Coriolis effect impacts various elements such as wind patterns and ocean currents. The vibrant red arrows elegantly demonstrate the direction in which these objects are deflected due to Earth's rotation. As we observe this intricate illustration, we gain a deeper understanding of how our atmosphere interacts with geographical features on our spherical planet. The Atlantic Ocean serves as an excellent backdrop for comprehending this scientific concept. By examining the movement of air masses and water currents across different latitudes, we can witness firsthand how they curve under the influence of Earth's rotation. Carlos Clarivan's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this print. Through his skillful use of color and precise depiction of rotating systems, he brings life to meteorological phenomena that shape weather patterns worldwide. This thought-provoking artwork not only appeals to those interested in earth science but also invites viewers from all walks of life to appreciate nature's hidden wonders. It serves as a reminder that even seemingly invisible forces like the Coriolis effect play a significant role in shaping our world.
