Which outcome is caused by sustained aeolian transport in arid regions?

💡 Explanation

The formation of loess deposits occurs via wind-blown sediment accumulation because aeolian transport moves silt and clay over long distances; therefore, loess forms, rather than accelerated glacial erosion which requires glacial action or chemical weathering that requires moisture.

• Which consequence results when eolian transport bypasses a small upwind island?
• Which geological outcome results when frictional resistance overcomes stress?
• Which feedback to nutrient upwelling results when benthic bioturbation decreases?
• Why does restricted Arctic outflow interrupt thermohaline circulation?
• Which flow pattern contributes to speleogenesis in karst regions?
• Which mechanism increases regolith clay content from granite?
