← GeographyWhich outcome occurs when increased chemical weathering of limestone bedrock?
A)Karst topography development accelerates rapidly✓
B)Glacier calving rates diminish considerably
C)Desertification processes become less likely
D)Volcanic eruptions trigger more frequently
💡 Explanation
Karst topography develops as bedrock dissolves. Carbonation weathering dissolves limestone because rainwater mixes with CO2 forming carbonic acid, therefore accelerating cave and sinkhole formation, rather than changes in glacial, desert, or volcanic processes.
