Which outcome occurs when levees undergo differential consolidation?

💡 Explanation

Crevasse splays form nearest to the differential subsidence because uneven settling causes localized stress concentrations and potential cracking, resulting in localized levee failure and sediment outflow via avulsion, rather than affecting distant levee sections or stabilizing fluvial processes.
