← GeographyWhich consequence results when the Coriolis effect intensifies?
A)Increased storm intensity and propagation✓
B)Weakened ocean deep convection zones
C)Decreased global mean temperature variability
D)Disrupted planetary albedo feedback loops
💡 Explanation
Intensified rotation induces stronger deflection, thereby increasing momentum transfer in low-pressure disturbances, enhancing storm intensity because this is a result of increased deflection due to changes in Earth's shape affecting global patterns, therefore storms amplify, rather than other climatological effects.
