Which ecosystem transformation results when heavy tephra deposition increases soil acidity?

💡 Explanation

Changed soil pH causes ecosystem shifts because metal toxicity alters nutrient availability via chemical weathering; therefore, sensitive species decline, rather than carbon sequestration or island formation, and phytoplankton thrive in aquatic environments.
