Which outcome on coastal dunes results when vegetation removal exceeds sand supply replenishment?

A)Increased dune migration and destabilization
B)Enhanced freshwater lens formation inland
C)Decreased coastal erosion from storms
D)Greater sediment accumulation at shore

💡 Explanation

Increased dune migration and destabilization occurs because vegetation normally anchors dunes; therefore, vegetation removal triggers deflation, which reduces the friction holding sand, rather than reinforcing stability; increased plant growth prevents sand movement instead.
