← GeographyWhich consequence results when increased wave energy impacts longshore transport?
A)Accelerated sea stack weakening✓
B)Enhanced river delta development
C)Increased isostatic crustal rebound
D)Reduced glacial sediment deposition
💡 Explanation
Increased wave energy accelerates erosion, weakening sea stacks through hydraulic action and abrasion, because the longshore transport of abrasive sediments intensifies their impact, therefore leading to faster structural failure rather than creating deltas or isostatic rebound.
