← GeographyWhich outcome occurs in coastal fog streams when strong offshore winds weaken significantly during early mornings?
A)Intensified coastal erosion
B)Deeper fog layer formation✓
C)Upwelling nutrient reduction
D)Increased ground temperature fluctuation
💡 Explanation
Deeper fog layers form because reduced offshore wind allows greater radiative cooling near the moist surface, enhancing condensation via the process of radiative heat transfer. Therefore, a deeper layer forms, rather than coastal change, because wind is not present.
