Which outcome follows reduced wave refraction around stacks?

💡 Explanation

Reduced wave refraction means less wave energy directly behind a stack; Wave Shadowing causes deposition because wave energy deflects around the stack, therefore, sediment accumulates in the sheltered area, rather than eroding it evenly.
