Which risk increases when groundwater discharge concentrates into closed basin lakes?

💡 Explanation

Hypersaline conditions result from increased evaporation. The mechanism is evaporative concentration because when water evaporates, dissolved salts remain, raising the salinity. Therefore, closed basins become hypersaline, rather than experience changes in erosion, seismicity or albedo.
