Which outcome occurs when wind exceeds vegetation anchoring thresholds on dunes?

💡 Explanation

An increased aeolian transport rate occurs because vegetation removal allows grain detachment via wind erosion, known as deflation. This mobilizes sand, therefore causing net transport. Saltation decreases, rather than is increased; weathering isn't directly enhanced.
