Which consequence results when deflation exposes desert pavement?

A)Reduced sediment availability for dunes
B)Increased rates of mechanical weathering
C)Amplified plant ecotone succession
D)Decreased surface albedo locally

💡 Explanation

Reduced sediment availability develops, because deflation removes finer particles, exposing larger rocks stabilizing the surface, which inhibits Aeolian transport. Therefore, dune formation decreases, rather than increasing weathering or impacting plant life and albedo significantly.
