Which outcome increases when continental interiors experience deflation?

💡 Explanation

Extensive deflation removes finer particles from the land surface, concentrating coarser material and transporting fine sediments. This airborne fine sediment gets deposited downwind, creating loess deposits, because wind transports particles rather than water; therefore loess, rather than glacial moraines from ice.
