What atmospheric condition can intensify drift and trap cooler air near the earth's surface?

  1. Particle Drift (Dust Drift)

  2. Runoff

  3. Temperature Inversion

  4. Vapor Drift

The correct answer is: Temperature Inversion

Temperature inversion is the atmospheric condition where the temperature increases as altitude increases. This is the correct answer because it can intensify drift and trap cooler air near the earth's surface. This is because the cool air is unable to rise and mix with the warmer air above, causing it to be trapped near the surface. This can lead to unhealthy air quality and can also affect weather patterns and air flow. The other options are incorrect because they do not involve changes in temperature or air flow. Particle drift and vapor drift are both related to the movement of particles and are not directly associated with temperature. Runoff, on the other hand, only refers to the movement of water on the ground and does not affect air conditions. Remember, temperature inversion is the only atmospheric condition that involves a temperature change and can intensify drift and trap cooler air near the surface.
