Which outcome arises when volcanic ash deposition disrupts pedogenesis?

💡 Explanation

Andisol formation occurs because significant volcanic ash input rapidly alters soil composition; therefore the distinct andic properties form, rather than the typical gradual horizon development associated with other forms of pedogenesis.
