Which risk increases when subsurface limestone experiences increased acidity?

💡 Explanation

Increased acidity promotes chemical weathering via dissolution, rapidly forming karst features because the carbonic acid reaction drives limestone dissolution, therefore creating caves and sinkholes, rather than impeding surface processes.
