Which mechanism drives northward heat dispersion when thermohaline circulation weakens in Atlantic?

💡 Explanation

When thermohaline circulation weakens, meridional temperature advection is amplified because heat normally transported by ocean currents is instead moved through atmospheric processes that respond disproportionately. Therefore meridional advection increases, rather than affecting tropospheric jets, latent heat, or Hadley cell intensity directly which operate independently.
