Which outcome increases erosion in karst regions because of accelerated chemical weathering?

💡 Explanation

Sinkhole formation accelerates because, with increased dissolution of carbonate rocks. Greater dissolution, due to accelerated chemical weathering widens subterranean voids and results in ground collapse by the mechanism of dissolution, therefore generating sinkholes, rather than changes to aquifer recharge or soil stability.
