← GeographyWhich outcome occurs when enhanced radiative forcing destabilizes Hadley cells?
A)Intense subtropical aridification expands significantly✓
B)Polar jet stream migrates towards equator
C)Rapid fragmentation of existent tropical cyclones
D)Enhanced upwelling increases coastal productivity
💡 Explanation
Intense subtropical aridification expands given Hadley cell weakening, because destabilization elevates subtropical subsidence via the sinking branch of the Hadley circulation. This intensifies subtropical aridity rather than affecting jet streams or cyclone formation; therefore enhanced descending air mass.
