Which outcome occurs when significant tephra deposition buries grasslands?

💡 Explanation

Albedo decreases because darker ash absorbs more solar radiation in place of reflective plants via tephra accumulation. Surface albedo decreases immediately rather than increasing weathering etc, therefore albedo best represents the direct consequence.
