Which outcome results when wind deflation concentrates desert surface lag deposits?

💡 Explanation

Desert pavement forms via deflation removing fine sediments, because selective erosion leaves behind a tightly fitted mosaic of larger pebbles; therefore, a protective layer develops, slowing future erosion, rather than accelerating dune formation or sediment transport.
