An increase in the concentration of greenhouse gases, like carbon dioxide, in the atmosphere can increase the temperature on earth. how would such an increase in temperature most likely affect earth's water cycle? a. it would diminish cloud formation which would result in an increase in precipitation. b. it would reduce ocean evaporation which would result in a decrease in precipitation. c. it would cause the melting of glaciers which would result in an increase in surface runoff. d. it would keep snow in the solid phase which would result in a decrease in surface runoff.
