Which outcome occurs when a coastal barrier island's sediment supply is disrupted by anthropogenic coastal armor?

💡 Explanation

Net landward barrier island migration accelerates because wave-driven **longshore drift** transports sediment, undermining the seaward side: This causes rollover, therefore the island shifts landward, rather than remaining stable or accreting offshore like in equilibrium.
