← GeographyWhich risk dramatically increases after extensive tephra deposition?
A)Lahars triggered by short rainfall✓
B)Lateral blast radius from eruption
C)Harmonic tremors indicating magma motion
D)Formation rates within lava tubes
💡 Explanation
Extensive tephra deposition sharply raises lahar risk because infiltration reduces soil cohesion, causing debris flows; therefore rainfall-induced lahars are very dangerous, rather than blast radius effects or deep underground phenomena.
