← GeographyWhich consequence dominates a newly formed river delta, due to uneven longshore drift?
A)Asymmetric coastal deposition patterns arise✓
B)Uniform delta sediment grain distribution
C)Increased tidal surge flood amplitude
D)Stabilized isostatic coastal sinking rate
💡 Explanation
Uneven longshore supply causes asymmetric deposition because sediment transport is greater on one side; therefore, an asymmetric delta results, rather than uniform deposits or altered tidal surge, which depend on basin shape.
