环太平洋地震带与柯里奥利力

CIRCUM-PACIFIC SEISMIC BELT AND CORIOLIS FORCE

摘要:

柯里奥利力是地球自转的一种惯性力。它使垂直下降的物体向东偏转,垂直上升的物体向西偏转,是形成环太平洋地震带中东西两岸构造应力差别的根本原因。

Abstract:

Coriolis force is a inertial force in earth rotation.It makes the fall body turn to east and the rising block turn to west.This is the reason why in the circum-Pacific seismic belt,the tectonic zones of western Pacific are different from those of eastern Pacific
