← GeographyWhich mechanism increases wave reflection near newly formed sea stacks?
A)Diffraction pattern interference✓
B)Oceanic thermal expansion
C)Longshore current acceleration
D)Tectonic plate subduction
💡 Explanation
Diffraction pattern interference increases wave reflection because the stacks act as secondary wave sources, therefore constructive and destructive interference alters wave energy distribution, rather than changing sea temperature or plate motion, which cause other outcomes.
