Which risk increases when anticyclonic ocean gyre circulation weakens?

💡 Explanation

Reduced gyre circulation decreases vertical mixing (upwelling) within the ocean, therefore nutrient redistribution becomes imbalanced, because upwelling helps redistribute nutrients; rather than increased upwelling intensity that is driven by the circulation.
