Which wave refraction outcome accelerates sea stack weathering?

💡 Explanation

Wave Convergence focuses energy at the stack's sides due to shape-induced refraction, increasing erosion because waves build toward the stack, rather than disperse. Therefore, more weathering happens compared to the undisturbed shoreline where diffusion dominates.
