Which outcome occurs when an increased rate destabilizes thermoclines?

💡 Explanation

Increased upwelling can disrupt thermoclines, resulting increased nutrient delivery because the water contains more nutrients; therefore, marine productivity increases near the coast, rather than an increased dissolved oxygen as deeper water is low in oxygen.
