Which line on the graph shows the sea level change that would result in continuous shoreline regression
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

When examining the trends in coastal position over a time frame, you perform shoreline change analysis. In most cases, coastal changes are very non-linear.A normal regression of the shoreline happens when there is supply of sediments where the base level is rising at the shoreline.Here the rate of sediment deposition is more than that at which the base level is rising at the shoreline.

The movement ofa shoreline seawards due to sedimentation at the coast is called regression.If this movement is due to sea-level fall like in our case in the question it is force regression.In option C, the sea level is falling.
