Which outcome is accelerated along fjord coastlines during repeated freeze-thaw cycles?

💡 Explanation

Increased rates of rock weathering occur because **frost wedging** exploits pre-existing cracks in fjord walls; repeated freezing expands ice, therefore physically dislodging rock fragments, rather than altering ocean circulation, sediment or chemical equilibrium.
