Which landscape transformation accelerates after extensive soil bioturbation?

💡 Explanation

Bioturbation mixes soil, exposing more surface area; this accelerates chemical weathering because increased surface interactions occur. Therefore, weathering increases, rather than reduced carbon storage or simple sediment deposition, given the increased soil reactivity.
