Which outcome occurs when thermokarst thaw lakes expand?

💡 Explanation

Coastal erosion and methane release accelerate because thermokarst expansion activates positive feedback; the Abedo Effect melts the permafrost, the Methane gas escapes, therefore answer A, rather than carbon sequestration due to decomposition of organics in permafrost.
