← GeographyWhich outcome results from high-rainfall events accelerating aluminum translocation?
A)Increased podzolization rates in forest soils✓
B)Decreased cation exchange capacity (CEC)
C)Enhanced nutrient availability for plants
D)Reduced acidity within the soil profile
💡 Explanation
Increased rainfall causes aluminum oxides to mobilize via chelation with organic acids leading to increased podzolization because it is the primary mechanism. Therefore, acidic conditions promoting translocation are increased, rather than creating favorable conditions such as increased CEC.
