Which risk increases when plate subduction ceases near lakes?

A)Increased geothermal activity eruption hazards

B)Crustal rebound decreased lake depths✓

C)Isostatic equilibrium glacial lake drainage

D)Decreased seismicity increased landslide potential

💡 Explanation

Crustal rebound results because glacial weight decreased, causing isostatic uplift; therefore lake depths decrease, rather than volcanic change, because tectonic push ceases after subduction declines due to absence of orogenic forcing.
