Which consequence results when longshore drift encounters a submerged glacial moraine?

💡 Explanation

Barrier island formation occurs because sediment accumulation is concentrated by longshore drift encountering the moraine's obstacle, initiating island development; therefore offshore islands from, rather than headland erosion or changes to salinity, due to deposition.
