Which outcome will increased Arctic soil saturation cause?

A)Accelerated downslope solifluction rates
B)Reduced methane clathrate formation
C)Enhanced thermal convection in permafrost
D)Diminished coastal erosion intensity

💡 Explanation

Accelerated solifluction occurs because increased water saturation reduces soil shear strength, therefore thawed soil more readily flows downslope, rather than exhibiting stable stratification or decreased weathering from temperature convection.
