Which outcome is potentiated by Earth's greater Coriolis effect?

💡 Explanation

Extratropical cyclones strengthen because the Coriolis effect deflects moving air masses, intensifying rotation. Therefore, storm intensity increases rather than weakening trade winds, shifting polar cells, or uniformly changing coastal upwelling, where other factors dominate locally.
