Which result occurs due to latent heat during rapid tropical cyclogenesis?

A)Enhanced Ekman spiral upwelling
B)Intensified divergence aloft
C)Increased air-sea heat transfer
D)Reduced geostrophic wind balance

💡 Explanation

The latent heat significantly intensifies divergence aloft through convective destabilization. Condensation releases heat, boosting the buoyancy and upward acceleration; therefore upper-level divergence increases, furthering storm intensification, rather than other surface or wind effects.
