Which consequence results when soil saturation accelerates deflation?

💡 Explanation

Decreased soil aggregate resistance follows accelerated deflation because increased moisture reduces soil cohesion, initiating mechanical breakdown. Decreased resistance leads to reduced stability; therefore, soil aggregates destabilize, promoting detachment, rather than stabilization mechanisms alone, near soil water saturation.
