Which outcome occurs when glacial outwash plains undergo subsequent deflation under high silt content?

💡 Explanation

Extensive loess deposits form because deflation effectively entrains fine silt particles from the outwash plain. This supports aeolian transport and subsequent deposition in sheltered areas, rather than salt weathering or altered water erosion.
