← GeographyWhich outcome intensifies seasonal flooding near ephemeral streams bordering subtropical high-pressure zones?
A)Enhanced atmospheric river formation✓
B)Increased land surface albedo
C)Decreased vegetation evapotranspiration
D)Enhanced mountain rain shadow effect
💡 Explanation
Enhanced flow in ephemeral streams is related to intensified atmospheric river formation because increased water vapor transport causes higher precipitation rates. Therefore, seasonal flooding increases, rather than decreases due to albedo or rainshadow.
