← GeographyWhich outcome accelerates sea stack deformation exposed to waves?
A)Increased wave refraction divergence✓
B)Decreased sediment transport rates
C)Reduced tidal surge amplitudes
D)Stabilized coastal vegetation growth
💡 Explanation
Wave refraction divergence concentrates energy on headlands and stacks leading to increased erosion; because more wave fronts diverge, concentrating wave energy therefore faster deformation occurs, rather than dissipation from barriers or stabilizing vegetation influencing soil loss.
