Which consequence results when extensive deflation occurs in playas?

💡 Explanation

A desert pavement forms after deflation preferentially removes fine sediments from the playa surface; because the remaining larger rocks and gravel interlock and armor the surface, therefore this forms desert pavement, rather than allowing greater saline influx to plants.
