The correct answer is option 4, Krishna. According to a report in the science journal `Nature Geoscience`, twenty-four out of thirty-three deltas in the world are sinking and shrinking. The Indian delta in the `Greater Peril` category refers to the delta that is at a higher risk of sinking and shrinking. Out of the given options, the Krishna delta falls into this category. However, it is important to note that the report does not specify the exact classification of the Krishna delta in terms of sinking and shrinking. Therefore, while the Krishna delta is likely in the `Greater Peril` category according to the report, the extent of sinking and shrinking may vary.
