← GeographyWhich outcome occurs when an isostatic rebound exceeds erosion?
A)Emergence of a raised fjord✓
B)Increased frequency of glacial calving
C)Formation of subglacial meltwater channels
D)Accelerated permafrost thaw in tundra
💡 Explanation
A raised fjord could occur because isostatic rebound elevates the fjord faster than erosion can remove material, resulting in a visible, ancient fjord shoreline; therefore, option A is right rather than options B, C, or D relying on marine processes within the fjord.
