Which geological outcome occurs when sustained, unidirectional wind interacts with unconsolidated desert sediment?

💡 Explanation

Deflation basins form due to wind Erosion removing fine sediment particles; this aeolian sorting creates a topographic depression because the wind removes loosely-bound material easily. Therefore "blowouts" result rather than depositional patterns because source sediment gets removed.
