← GeographyWhich outcome occurs when wind shear diminishes during El Niño?
A)Increased Atlantic hurricane formation✓
B)Decreased trans-Pacific flight turbulence
C)Amplified equatorial upwelling strength
D)Reduced Indian monsoon rainfall levels
💡 Explanation
Increased Atlantic hurricane formation results because reduced wind shear weakens disruptive forces, allowing storm clouds to organize due to the enhanced atmospheric instability; therefore, intensified hurricane activity occurs, rather than the opposite outcomes linked to strong wind shear.
