Which coastal outcome occurs when hydraulic action dominates?

💡 Explanation

Increased sea stack formation occurs first because hydraulic action is the mechanical erosion mechanism and weaker rock is destabilized and moved away; therefore sea stacks form from resistant rock rather than sandbar deposition since wave energy patterns vary along coastlines.
