Which process most directly redistributes heat following intense insolation at the equator?

A)Hadley cell meridional overturning circulation
B)Deep ocean thermohaline convection currents
C)Stratospheric ozone production equilibrium
D)Exospheric molecular kinetic energy dissipation

💡 Explanation

Equatorial heating initiates strong upward air movement, beginning Hadley cell circulation because warm, moist air rises and diverges, eventually sinking at subtropical latitudes; therefore, these cells redistribute the heat, rather than other slower processes like ocean currents or radiative dynamics.
