Which feedback outcome occurs when high latitude glacial runoff increases?

💡 Explanation

Reduced salinity from glacial runoff lowers ocean water density, decreasing density-driven North Atlantic Deep Water formation because it inhibits sinking water masses. Therefore circulation slows globally rather than accelerating; other options are unrelated
