Which risk increases for cave ecosystems when nearby agricultural irrigation raises groundwater tables?

💡 Explanation

Increased bacterial transport rises because groundwater table change causes bacterial mobilization via advection. This contaminates cave ecosystems, therefore bacterial input increases, rather than decreased speleothem formation from stable conditions.
