Which consequence results when increased freshwater influx disrupts North Atlantic gyres?

💡 Explanation

A large freshwater influx reduces surface water density and impedes sinking, which disrupts the gyre cycle via density driven sinking cessation. This weakens the Gulf Stream, because the thermohaline circulation mechanism slows, therefore weakens the current, rather than accelerate it or enhances upwelling which involves wind.
