Which characteristic causes increased cyclone intensity in the Southern Hemisphere?

💡 Explanation

Increased poleward air pressure gradients amplify the Coriolis effect because the sharper pressure difference results in stronger geostrophic winds. Therefore cyclone intensity increases; rather than A, the Coriolis force increases further from the equator.
