Which long-term outcome results when construction prevents deep soil horizon bioturbation by earthworms?

💡 Explanation

Decreased permeability develops because earthworm bioturbation normally creates macropores that enhance drainage; therefore, reduced bioturbation from soil compaction decreases water infiltration rates, rather than impacting albedo or methane production.
