Geography

Which phenomenon is enhanced near 60° latitude because air converges?

A)Intense cyclone formation
B)Strong offshore breezes
C)Elevated volcanic activity
D)Increased coastal upwelling

💡 Explanation

Cyclone formation is enhanced via cyclogenesis when intense low pressure forms caused by converging air masses due to the Ferrel cell; the polar front increases baroclinicity, therefore storms result here rather than diverging winds, topography, or ocean currents alone.
