Which outcome is amplified by the increased frequency of dust storms in playas?

💡 Explanation

Reg formation increases because increased dust storm frequency leads to higher “deflation”, the removal of fine particles, which leaves larger rocks on the surface, contributing to desert pavement creation rather than deposition or weathering.
