← GeographyWhich outcome increases on coastlines with abundant stacks?
A)Concentrated wave energy divergence✓
B)Enhanced sediment deposition rates
C)Accelerated glacial isostatic rebound
D)Decreased saline intrusion inland
💡 Explanation
Wave energy is diffracted around stacks, leading to concentrated divergence and increased erosion on adjacent shorelines because sediment transport processes shift; therefore, accelerated coastal erosion near stacks occurs, rather than deposition changes directly inland.
