Which outcome increases when wind velocity increases near a source of loess?

💡 Explanation

Increased wind velocity leads to greater Aeolian transport capacity, enhancing loess deposition far from the source because increased shear stress entrains more particles, increasing downwind sedimentation, therefore long-range deposition increases, rather than changes limited to creep.
