Which outcome results when high winds affect parabolic dunes?

💡 Explanation

Blowout formation occurs with wind erosion on the dune crest because the wind scoops sand, undercutting vegetation via deflation processes; therefore the windward side erodes, rather than becoming stable or migrating forward into the wind.
