Which consequence results from pyroclastic flow-induced dam failure?

A)Increased regional groundwater recharge rates
B)Downstream lahar initiation and devastation
C)Accelerated coastline progradation processes
D)Formation unique ephemeral playa lakes

💡 Explanation

Lahars will occur because pyroclastic dam failures release impounded water, leading to the **bulking** of sediment. This increased volume initiates downstream mudflows, rather than stable recharge, therefore lahar formation occurs.
