← GeographyWhich geographical outcome results from loess sediment deposition?
A)Formation of fertile agricultural plains✓
B)Increased coastal erosion vulnerability
C)Amplification of seismic wave propagation
D)Accelerated glacial ice sheet accumulation
💡 Explanation
Loess deposition leads to fertile plains because aeolian dust contains minerals, therefore enhancing the soil's agricultural productivity by silt accumulation, rather than causing accelerated glacial ice accumulation.
