Which outcome follows increased rainfall intensity on soils?

A)Accelerated soil horizons depletion✓

B)Slower evapotranspiration rates develop

C)Reduced surface erosion occurs

D)Increased carbon sequestration happens

💡 Explanation

Increased rainfall intensity results in increased soil horizons depletion because `leaching` moves soluble minerals and organic matter downwards through the soil profile at a faster rate due to the increased water flow; therefore horizons will deplete, rather than other listed processes occurring.
