← GeographyWhich glacial outcome results when isostatic depression rebounds unevenly?
A)Elevated marine terraces form locally✓
B)Crevasses progressively widen dramatically
C)Cryoconite holes accelerate ablation rates
D)Eskers redirect subglacial sediment outflow
💡 Explanation
Localized uplift due to differential isostatic rebound causes elevated marine terraces, because post-glacial rebound isn't uniform; therefore terraces form reflecting prior sea levels, rather than uniform subsidence or glacial features related to melting.
