Which outcome typically results when tephra deposition buries valleys?

💡 Explanation

Lahars form because tephra deposition compacts valley fill; this triggers mass instability during rainfall, initiating volatile mudflows, therefore creating lahars rather than weathering or stabilization because water saturation drives sediment transport.
