Question

Consider the following statements:
1. Atlantic Conveyor Belt is part of the Thermohaline circulation.
2. The Atlantic Conveyor Belt helps in absorbing and storing atmospheric carbon.
3. Rising temperatures in the Indian Ocean can strengthen the Atlantic Conveyor Belt.

1. अटलांटिक कन्वेयर बेल्ट थर्मोहेलिन परिसंचरण का हिस्सा है।
2. अटलांटिक कन्वेयर बेल्ट वायुमंडलीय कार्बन को अवशोषित और संग्रहीत करने में मदद करती है।
3. हिंद महासागर में बढ़ता तापमान अटलांटिक कन्वेयर बेल्ट को मजबूत कर सकता हैं।

Solution

The correct option is D 1, 2 and 3

1, 2 और 3
Recently, a study revealed that a rise in temperature of the Indian Ocean could boost a system of currents in the Atlantic Ocean, known as Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC). AMOC is also known as the Atlantic Conveyor Belt.
Statement 1 is correct: AMOC is part of the Earth’s largest water circulation system known as Thermohaline circulation.
Statement 2 is correct: AMOC plays a significant role in determining the weather across the world, as it transports a substantial amount of heat from the Tropics and Southern Hemisphere toward the North Atlantic, where the heat is transferred to the atmosphere. Thus, it aids in absorbing and storing atmospheric carbon.
Statement 3 is correct: The recent study revealed that a rise in temperature of the Indian Ocean could boost a system of currents in the Atlantic Ocean (AMOC).

हाल ही में, एक अध्ययन से पता चला है कि हिंद महासागर के तापमान में वृद्धि अटलांटिक महासागर में धाराओं की एक प्रणाली को बढ़ावा दे सकती है, जिसे अटलांटिक मेरिडियनल ओवरटर्निंग सर्कुलेशन (एएमओसी) के रूप में जाना जाता है।एएमओसी को अटलांटिक कन्वेयर बेल्ट के रूप में भी जाना जाता है।
