← GeographyWhat outcome significantly diminishes agricultural yields after a large eruption?
A)Stratospheric aerosol injection increases albedo✓
B)Pyroclastic flow directly scorched
C)Lahars inundate fertile floodplains
D)Tsunamis deposit salt inland
💡 Explanation
Stratospheric aerosol injection leads to decreased solar radiation because the mechanism is global dimming; therefore, crop yields fall over large distances rather than being confined through other local volcanic hazards.
