← HistoryWhich agricultural pattern resulted from Maya chinampa construction?
A)Local microclimate thermal buffering✓
B)Soil nitrogen nutrient limitation
C)Increased pest vulnerability acutely
D)Decreased reliance upon water salinity
💡 Explanation
Chinampas create differential heating via increased thermal mass affecting local convection, establishing stable thermal stratification; this thermal buffering protected seedlings. Therefore, frost vulnerability decreased, rather than constraints becoming more difficult, because of added thermal resilience.
