Isn't the Coriolis force Zero at equator? Then how come at 1:20 min of video it is possible to show that wind and ekman transport are at 90 degrees to each other. Shouldn't Ekman transport be zero at equator? Or am i thinking in wrong direction? Kindly verify by doubt

+rohit gupta Yes you are correct that the coriolis force is zero at the equator, but slightly north (or south) of the equator, the coriolis effect directs moving parcels of water to the right (or left), and, as a result, Ekman tranport is directed 90 degrees to the right (or left) of the wind. This phenomenon results in divergence of equatorial waters and equatorial upwelling. Hope that helps.

excuse me man at one point you may be wrong when you explain example of north american when current move from south to north (though in northern sphere) it moves left because you see it from south actually earth is rotating west to east so from when you see it it is important plz chek you projection.

Thanks, that really helped me with Ekman transport :) BUT: Careful with the up and downwelling regions, you got them mixed up a bit. Rule of thumb is that upwelling happens at the westcoast of continents while downwelling happens at the eastcoasts.

Great video, BUT... the west coast U.S. has prevailing winds from the NORTH, causing major upwelling along the Oregon and California coast. Just fyi so nobody is confused.
