Which weather outcome occurs when air pressure gradients intensify?

A)Increased geostrophic wind speed
B)Stratospheric ozone layer depletion
C)Accelerated glacial periods onset
D)Decreased thermohaline circulation rate

💡 Explanation

Intensified pressure gradients enhance the Geostrophic Effect, causing faster movement where the pressure differential is strongest. Therefore, wind speed rises sharply, rather than changes to ozone, glacial cycles, because these are driven by larger-scale forces.
