Which outcome occurs when a substantial landslide obstructs stream flow into a glacial lake?

A)Temporary lake level increase abruptly
B)Accelerated thermohaline circulation initiates
C)Downstream ecosystems become carbon-rich
D)Reduced turbidity in river outflow occurs

💡 Explanation

A landslide obstructing stream flow causes lake level rise because mass wasting results in damming; this induces hydrostatic pressure increase. This surge causes temporary level rising rather than thermohaline effects, biological shifts, or modified turbidity.
