← GeographyWhich risk increases during lahar formation near stratovolcanoes?
A)Long-range debris flow velocity✓
B)Stratospheric aerosol albedo
C)Gradual geothermal energy dissipation
D)Magmatic gas condensation rate
💡 Explanation
Increased water saturation amplifies debris flow volume, using gravitational potential energy; therefore, the velocity increases because this process enhances momentum transfer, rather than albedo alteration from aerosols affecting insolation at the tropopause.
