Which outcome occurs when rising sea temperature reduces landmass?

💡 Explanation

Island submergence accelerates due to thermal expansion of seawater and loss of land ice via meltwater, enacting a positive feedback loop, because decreased albedo increases warming via **radiative forcing**, therefore island loss accelerates visibly rather than being balanced other geological impacts.
