Comment coriolis force/effect (Score 1) 618

Vague knowledge here, but doesn't the coriolis effect have something to do with a planet's rotational momentum and it's atmosphere?

As in, the planet is rotating one way but for what ever reason (low gravity? very very fast rotation?) the gas at the surface of the planet is moving in the other direction.

Wolf, could you please correct me if I'm wrong?
