← GeographyWhich result from deflation happens during desert pavement formation?
A)Smaller particles removal by wind✓
B)Increased sand deposition locally
C)Elevation of local water table
D)Chemical weathering acceleration on surface
💡 Explanation
Desert pavement forms because deflation removes fine sediments via wind erosion, leaving larger rocks; therefore, only smaller particles are removed, rather than increased deposition which would bury pavement or changes in water table/weathering.
