← GeographyWhich consequence results when deep stratification limits gyre mixing?
A)Reduced global heat redistribution efficiency✓
B)Increased coastal upwelling intensity
C)Decreased seafloor sediment accumulation rates
D)Enhanced deep ocean carbon sequestration
💡 Explanation
Reduced mixing concentrates surface heat, limiting poleward advection via thermohaline circulation because the mechanism of heat redistribution stalls; therefore, global heat shuffling is impaired, rather than local dynamics like upwelling being directly impacted.
