Which outcome occurs when ice-sheet unloading follows deglaciation?

💡 Explanation

Fault reactivation causes enhanced seismicity near previously glaciated regions because the removal of ice sheet mass changes the stress regime on existing faults, therefore triggering earthquakes rather than suppressing them through crustal relaxation alone.
