← GeographyWhich outcome occurs when vegetation cover declines at dunes?
A)Increased dune migration rate results✓
B)Halite precipitation rates sharply increase
C)Decreased sediment supply to dunes occurs
D)Calcite cementation processes slow dramatically
💡 Explanation
Increased dune migration happens because less vegetation leads to reduced surface friction and increased wind transport of the sand during aeolian processes; therefore, the dune moves faster rather than reduced migration or mineral precipitation being affected in isolation.
