Which outcome during glacial retreat facilitates esker formation?

💡 Explanation

Eskers form due to sediment deposition within subglacial meltwater channels because pressurized water flow deposits material progressively, therefore creating long sinuous ridges, rather than other outcomes related to postglacial modification.

• Which outcome can cause decreased upwelling when surface winds decline along a coastline?
• Which outcome occurs when increased pore fluid pressure in a fault zone exceeds lithostatic stress?
• Which process leads to the formation of braided streams on the surface of an alluvial fan?
• Which process primarily causes the formation of oxbow lakes in low-gradient fluvial systems?
• Which outcome results when wave refraction concentrates near a headland?
• Which outcome results when soil shear strength decreases during solifluction?
