Which climate effect occurs on land bordering a subtropical gyre's eastern boundary given the current density stratification?

💡 Explanation

When a subtropical gyre interacts with an eastern boundary, upwelling occurs because wind-driven surface currents are deflected offshore due to the Coriolis effect, pulling cold, nutrient-rich water upwards, suppressing precipitation and increasing evaporation. Therefore desertification and higher salinity result, rather than rainfall, instability, or storms because cooling and stabilization effects dominate at coastal regions.
