Which mechanism maintains the consistent latitudinal boundaries of Hadley cells despite seasonal insolation changes?

💡 Explanation

When solar heating is intense, increased evaporation and subsequent condensation within the Intertropical Convergence Zone drives enhanced latent heat release, raising the mean tropopause height which increases stability and constrains the poleward extent of rising air, thereby stabilizing the Hadley cell boundaries. Therefore, latent heat release becomes the primary limiting mechanism instead other forcing factors.
