Which outcome accelerates ventifact formation on exposed bedrock?

A)Sustained, unidirectional katabatic wind events
B)Diurnal freeze-thaw cycles in arid climates
C)Deposition of fine alluvial sediments
D)Episodic flash flood inundation events

💡 Explanation

Katabatic winds enhance ventifact formation because abrasion relies on prolonged exposure to wind-driven particle erosion, therefore sculpting bedrock rather than freeze-thaw weathering which decomposes rock through physical expansion.
