Which outcome results from excessive removal of loess?

A)Accelerated gully erosion formation
B)Increased volcanic hazard activation
C)Reduced groundwater recharge potential
D)Enhanced orographic precipitation rates

💡 Explanation

Gully erosion accelerates when loess, a loosely packed sediment, is removed because removal undermines soil cohesion, initiating accelerated flows via surface runoff, rather than water infiltration; therefore, erosion dominates, not water retention.
