Gaspard-Gustave de Coriolis (1792–1843) was a French mathematician and engineer best known for his contributions to the fields of mechanics and mathematics, particularly in the study of rotational motion. He is most famously associated with the "Coriolis effect," which describes the apparent deflection of moving objects when viewed from a rotating reference frame, such as Earth.
