Which risk develops as rivers erode coastal terraces?

💡 Explanation

Downcutting of rivers near coasts increases the risk of coastal cliff destabilization by Lateral erosion; because the eroded base of cliffs loses support, therefore collapse risk increases, rather than tectonic changes or radiation reflection processes.
