← GeographyWhich risk increases drastically following Antarctic Bottom Water disruption?
A)Global heat transfer variability✓
B)Sea ice albedo reduction
C)Methane hydrate destabilization
D)Coastal erosion intensity
💡 Explanation
Global heat transfer variability risks increasing, because thermohaline circulation distributes heat from the equator toward the poles. Disruption reduces this transfer, therefore creating greater temperature extremes, rather than directly causing albedo shifts or destabilizing hydrates which depend on different climate sensitivities.
