Which atmospheric outcome occurs when increased land surface heating disrupts Hadley cells?

💡 Explanation

Increased heating strengthens the descending limb via convective instability, resulting in enhanced adiabatic compression; this causes desert expansion because the sinking air suppresses precipitation, therefore deserts grow rather than other climate phenomena.
