← GeographyWhich process consistently rebuilds sand eroded around coastal stacks?
A)Longshore drift stabilization✓
B)Isostatic rebound adjustment
C)Thermal expansion equilibrium
D)Tidal current amplification
💡 Explanation
Longshore drift transports sediments along coasts; because waves approach at an angle, sediment is moved along the beach and re-deposited therefore forming sandbars that stabilize stacks, rather than isostatic rebound which involves uplift.
