← GeographyWhich consequence results when concentrated livestock waste infiltrates karst topography?
A)Accelerated sinkhole formation downstream✓
B)Increased aquifer recharge rates
C)Reduced surface water alkalinity
D)Enhanced speleothem growth rates
💡 Explanation
Increased livestock waste accelerates chemical erosion, because acidic compounds in the biological waste react with limestone via dissolution, therefore triggering sinkhole formation, rather than promoting speleothem growth or reducing surface alkalinity.
