What primary outcome arises from increased coastal sandstone erosion due to intensified wave action?

💡 Explanation

Accelerated wave action causes erosion of sandstone headlands and cliffs. This "undercutting" mechanism degrades the rock, because this removes supporting material, therefore increasing the rate of sea stack formation, rather than immediate changes in transport or stabilization.

• Which mechanism MOST directly causes meandering stream formation on a gently sloping floodplain?
• Which sinkhole formation risk increases when groundwater cave ceilings collapse?
• Which process exacerbates debris flow risk on an alluvial fan originating from glacial valleys?
• Which outcome results when a glacial cirque degrades?
• Which mechanism primarily causes an oxbow lake to eventually become a swamp?
• Which consequence typically arises from fine-grained pyroclastic eruptions entering stratospheric air currents?
