Which airflow consequence occurs when thermals expand during soaring?

💡 Explanation

Updraft speed increases lift generation because thermals cause atmospheric expansion, driving convection. Thermal soaring uses thermal convection rather than other aerodynamic effects. Therefore, increased lift occurs rather than vortex shedding or boundary separation, because convection changes airspeed.
