Which erosional outcome is accelerated when cave CO₂ levels increase?

💡 Explanation

Increased cave CO₂ leads to higher carbonic acid formation thereby enhancing limestone dissolution through chemical weathering; this is carbonic acid weathering; therefore erosion accelerates, rather than changes to speleothem formation or silicate reactions.
