Which outcome occurs when freeze-thaw exacerbates eluviation during pedogenesis?

💡 Explanation

Freeze-thaw cycles amplify eluviation, the mechanical transport of fine particles, because soil pore connectivity increases; this causes greater water and nutrient transfer to lower soil horizons, rather than topsoil retention therefore enhancing deeper layer enrichment.
