Which mechanism causes consistent surface wind patterns within Hadley cells?

💡 Explanation

When warm air rises at the equator within Hadley cells, the Coriolis force deflects the returning northward or southward airflow aloft because conservation of angular momentum acts on the moving air mass. Therefore Coriolis force dictates surface wind patterns, rather than other local effects or polar dynamics which create drastically different circulation.
