Which outcome occurs when rapid progradation in alluvial coastal plains restricts accommodation space?

A)Increased frequency of avulsions
B)Enhanced tidal prism formation
C)Decreased sediment bypass efficiency
D)Reduced backwater influence extent

💡 Explanation

Increased avulsions are triggered due to decreased accommodation because the gradient advantage increases due to sediment aggradation reducing the channel's efficiency which prompts shifts; therefore, avulsions become more frequent with gradient increases, rather than enhanced tidal prisms.
