Which outcome occurs when decompression melting decreases beneath Iceland?

💡 Explanation

Increased subglacial flooding occurs because less heat from volcanism weakens the ice from below, allowing surface meltwaters erode larger cavities; therefore enhanced melting rates dominate rather than meltwater being restricted by ongoing conductive heating.
