Which outcome is accelerated when island vegetation removal occurs?

💡 Explanation

Increased longshore transport occurs with vegetation removal because plant roots create soil cohesion, thereby resisting erosion; the longshore drift sediment budget increases because of the diminished soil cohesion therefore wave action dominates rather than balanced ecological stability.
