Which consequence results when intense weathering causes heightened leaching in coastal mangrove swamps?

A)Increased mangrove seedling establishment
B)Enhanced peat soil accumulation
C)Disrupted nutrient availability balance
D)Accelerated carbonate sediment precipitation

💡 Explanation

Disrupted nutrient availability arises because intense weathering leads to the dissolution and removal of vital cations via leaching, especially calcium and magnesium. Losing these elements hinders the complex ecological exchange, therefore impacting vital ecosystem stability rather than positive seedling establishment.
