Which consequence accelerated the decline of Byzantine fire signals?

💡 Explanation

Reduced visibility caused signal failure. Thermal stratification creates refractive bending within coastal air masses, compounding distortions because mirage makes distant signal fires appear fainter, therefore reliance diminished rather than maintaining through clearer atmospheric conditions.

• Which outcome occurred due to terrace bench settlement?
• Which outcome arose when the inclined plane's design limitations hindered lift in Archimedes' screw pumps irrigating early Mughal gardens?
