← GeographyWhich process hinders agricultural land reclamation within fjords?
A)Isostatic rebound✓
B)Halocline formation
C)Glacial till composition
D)Katabatic wind scouring
💡 Explanation
Isostatic rebound delays land reclamation because the land, freed from glacial ice weight, slowly rises, altering drainage; the altered flow patterns impair productivity rather than halocline formation's stratification issues.
