Which outcome becomes likelier as rising global temperatures accelerate glacial isostatic depression in island chains?

💡 Explanation

Increased coastal inundation risk occurs because glacial isostatic depression causes land subsidence; therefore, relative sea level rises, causing coastal flooding and erosion of island ecosystems, rather than seismic activity at the same rate.
