Which outcome occurs when thermal gradients accentuate the Coriolis effect?

💡 Explanation

Increased thermal gradients enhance the Coriolis effect, amplifying the Rossby wave patterns and leading to increased jet stream meandering, because this increases upper-level divergence. Therefore, meandering increases, rather than weakened trade winds, caused by other circulation variations.
