Which long-term outcome follows increased carbonic acid dissolution during soil pedogenesis?

💡 Explanation

Increased carbonic acid levels results in enhanced chemical weathering releasing ions that facilitate clay translocation; this `eluviation` (leaching) process accelerates because it raises ion concentrations, therefore clay minerals migrate downward, rather than promoting soil stabilization.

• Which process drives the upward transport of silica-rich magma at strike-slip fault zones?
• Which phenomenon causes large-scale ocean currents in the Northern Hemisphere to deflect to the right?
• Which mechanism significantly reduces sediment deposition speed in an alluvial fan channel during a flash flood event?
• Which sediment sorting mechanism creates lateral moraine ridges along proglacial lake shorelines?
• Which ground response risk sharply rises along arctic shorelines underlain by shallow permafrost and unstable terrain heated by warmer seawater?
• Which effect accelerates coastal erosion when sustained offshore winds induce upwelling?
