Which outcome from pyroclastic density flows increases erosion rate?

💡 Explanation

Vegetation loss increases erosion because flow-induced deforestation removes root systems that stabilize soil, which leads to greater surface runoff. Therefore, removal causes increased erosion, rather than concentrated flow in gullies or melting glaciers.
