Which consequence results when deep ocean thermohaline circulation stalls?

💡 Explanation

Diminished nutrient recycling occurs when thermohaline circulation weakens because upwelling reduces, driving fewer nutrients into the photic zone; therefore nutrient upwelling decreases, rather than changes to salinity, erosion, or hydrate destabilization because these are controlled by other processes.
