Which outcome is amplified by the increased frequency of dust storms in playas?

💡 Explanation

Reg formation increases because increased dust storm frequency leads to higher “deflation”, the removal of fine particles, which leaves larger rocks on the surface, contributing to desert pavement creation rather than deposition or weathering.

• Which outcome occurs when increased pore fluid pressure in a fault zone exceeds lithostatic stress?
• Which consequence results when unimpeded longshore drift transports sediment?
• Which process drives cirque formation when glacial ice accumulation fluctuates?
• Which mechanism causes island arc formation during subduction of an oceanic plate beneath another oceanic plate?
• Which risk increases when tectonic uplift rapidly elevates an existing alluvial fan?
• Which pattern develops because strike-slip fault motion locks temporarily along section transform plate boundaries?
