← GeographyWhich outcome results when poorly-managed grazing denudes loess deposits?
A)Amplified dust storm frequency emerges✓
B)Decreased rates soil horizon formation
C)Nitrogen fixation rates will increase
D)Vegetative succession patterns accelerate
💡 Explanation
Amplified dust storms emerge because Aeolian deflation processes intensify when plant cover diminishes, therefore loess soils erode easily, rather than nitrogen fixation, which would require maintaining some vegetation or soil horizon formation, generally occurring over much longer scales.
