Which outcome increases as Aeolian transport weakens, causing dune crest failures?

💡 Explanation

Increased leeward avalanches occur because the angle of repose is exceeded due to decreased wind removing sand, which results in gravitational settling exceeding deposition via Aeolian Transport. Therefore, the slope destabilizes rather than stabilizing as vegetation cover increases.
