← GeographyWhich risk significantly escalates when sea stack separation increases?
A)Increased nearshore wave energy✓
B)Reduced longshore sediment transport
C)Decreased tidal range amplification
D)Enhanced upwelling nutrient distribution
💡 Explanation
Increased stack separation focuses wave energy because wave refraction decreases, intensifying impact on adjacent coastlines; therefore, erosion accelerates, rather than sediment transport changes dominating solely or tidal/upwelling patterns changing near the sea stacks.
