Question

question 7 of 29 which of these increases as greenhouse gas pollution increases? a. rate of thermohaline circulation b. ocean surface temperature c. thickness of freshwater ice sheets d. ocean salinity

Explanation:

Greenhouse gas pollution traps more heat in the Earth - atmosphere system. This leads to global warming. As a result, ocean surface temperature increases. Thermohaline circulation can be disrupted rather than have its rate increased. Freshwater ice sheets melt due to warming, so their thickness decreases. Ocean salinity can be affected by melting ice (dilution) rather than increasing.

Answer:

B. Ocean surface temperature
