Which consequence results when increased wave fetch occurs?

💡 Explanation

Increased wave fetch causes higher wave energy impacting coastlines; consequently, abrasion rates increase because `hydraulic action` of energetic waves physically removes material, therefore coastal erosion accelerates, rather than sediment deposition or altering tidal ranges.
