Which outcome occurs when sediment supply overwhelms lake subsidence?

💡 Explanation

Delta lobes shift course because sediment loading surpasses the compensatory subsidence. This causes progradation surpassing accommodation space due to avulsion, therefore lobes must shift because the initial path is too shallow, rather than creating slopes or affecting processes.
