← GeographyWhich atmospheric outcome occurs following extensive tephra deposition?
A)Reduced shortwave solar radiation✓
B)Increased frequency of lightning
C)Enhanced Hadley cell circulation
D)Decreased stratospheric Ozone depletion
💡 Explanation
Reduced solar radiation results from tephra blocking sunlight; Atmospheric obstruction occurs because the airborne particles engage in scattering. therefore less shortwave influx, rather than altering electrical activity or Hadley circulation, because this depends heavily on surface heating.
