← HistoryWhich risk increased for the Mughal's Shalamar Bagh gardens during a drought?
A)Pietra dura inlay cracking
B)Aqueduct hydrostatic pressure decline
C)Charbagh geometrical pattern shift
D)Reduced evaporative cooling efficacy✓
💡 Explanation
The reduced water availability decreases evaporation, impairing evaporative cooling, because latent heat transfer declines. This means reduced comfort, rather than structural damage. The drop in water level did not affect aqueduct pressure because the design leveraged gravity alone.
