Which scenario follows the rapid dissolution of Antarctic carbonates?

💡 Explanation

Glacial retreat uncovers limestone bedrock, where dissolution occurs because of direct exposure to acidic meltwater, therefore chemical weathering accelerates, rather than ocean acidification, stratification, or rising salinity causing such rapid and localized bedrock impacts.
