Which outcome increases when polar ice melt accelerates?

A)Decreased albedo and increased absorption
B)Increased thermohaline circulation stability
C)Lowered equatorial sea surface temperatures
D)Enhanced coastal upwelling and productivity

💡 Explanation

Amplified polar warming occurs because decreased ice cover reduces the albedo feedback, raising surface absorption and temperatures; therefore a warming cycle accelerates, rather than thermohaline stability occurring, which would oppose the warming with heat redistribution.
