Which pattern emerges affecting coastal dune stability if longshore currents shift sediment supply southward?

A)Rapid aeolian sediment bypassing occurs
B)Vegetation thrives favoring foredune accretion
C)Erosion weakens dune anchoring
D)Seawater percolation strengthens dune structures

💡 Explanation

An abrupt sediment deficit invokes down-drift dune destabilization because reduced sediment input arrests dune repair by aeolian transport, rather than vegetation thriving, therefore coastal erosion causes structural destabilization where reinforcement is absent.
