Distinguishing between Yin and Yang of Landscape and North and South
Rivers are affected by Coriolis acceleration, and objects moving horizontally in the northern hemisphere will deflect to the right (caused by the earth moving from west to east). Rivers will shift to the right bank when flowing, but most rivers in China flow from west to east, so the south bank of rivers is vulnerable to the impact and erosion of river water, forming a situation of wet south and dry north, so the water in the north is sunny and the water in the south is cloudy.
