Which risk prominently increases within active alluvial fans?

A)Avulsion severity during upstream surges
B)Eutrophication from decreased nutrient cycling
C)Glacial advance overriding fluvial processes
D)Permanent halocline destabilizing aquatic ecosystems

💡 Explanation

Flooding surges cause greater avulsion risk because the braided channels shift rapidly during high discharge events, exacerbating channel migration patterns; therefore, avulsion severity increases near active alluvial fans, rather than glacial activity or eutrophication affecting ecosystems.
