Which increased weathering impact occurs when carbonic acid circulation slows?

💡 Explanation

Slower carbonic acid circulation reduces hydrolysis, because less H2CO3 contacts rock surfaces breaking down silicates; therefore CO2 removal decreases, rather than the silicate reduction or more general remote acidity effects because hydrolysis is rate limited.
