154. Which is the main factor that causes the deflection of the southeast trade winds?
The rotation of the Earth, specifically the Coriolis effect, deflects southeast trade winds. This deflection is a result of Earth's rotation and is the primary cause, distinguishing it from factors like seasonal changes, ocean currents, or humidity, which influence wind characteristics but not their fundamental deflection.
