How would surface currents be affected if earth did not rotate?
Surface ocean currents are generally wind-driven and develop their typical clockwise spirals in the northern hemisphere and counter-clockwise rotation in the southern hemisphere because of the imposed wind stresses. However, the rotation of the Earth affects the way the waters move through currents. Without rotation, currents may not exist. ChaCha again!
