Which consequence results when glacier calving exacerbates cirque erosion?

💡 Explanation

Rapid proglacial lake expansion occurs because enhanced glacier calving increases meltwater discharge. This, therefore, expands the down-valley lake’s size via meltwater deposition, rather than chemical weathering, which is slower, or impacting isostatic rebound directly.
