Which outcome results when sediment supply exceeds capacity in fjords?

💡 Explanation

Increased delta formation happens because sediment deposition overwhelms the fjords' removal capabilities, and aggradation occurs through sediment ACCUMULATION rather than erosion. Isostatic rebound happens due to ice mass changes, therefore it would not happen due to the sediment load alone.
