← GeographyWhich feedback maintains braid formation distal to alluvial megafans?
A)Aggradation exceeding channel incision rates✓
B)Decreased slope increases flow velocity
C)Vegetation stabilizing primary channel banks
D)Cohesive soil preventing lateral migration
💡 Explanation
Aggradation causes further channel divergence via avulsion: decreased slope follows aggradation, and this positive feedback loop increases braid channel formation, rather than channel stabilization from vegetation because channel instability dominates.
