← GeographyA submarine landslide within a fjord induces which outcome?
A)Tsunami generation via rapid displacement✓
B)Halocline deepening within the fjord basin
C)Isostatic rebound acceleration near coast
D)Increased carbon sequestration offshore

A submarine landslide triggers tsunami generation because the rapid displacement of water by the slide mass constitutes a significant impulse; therefore, a tsunami results, rather than carbon sequestration changes concentrated in offshore systems.
