Which risk significantly increases when island vegetation dies?

💡 Explanation

Increased loss of island vegetation accelerates coastal erosion, because root systems no longer stabilize sediment via *bioturbation*. Therefore erosion risk increases greatly, rather than affecting isostatic rebound, ocean currents, or albedo feedback.
