Which outcome is directly intensified when extensive deflation lowers regional elevation?

💡 Explanation

Increased deflation intensifies water table interactions, enhancing capillary action. Salt accumulation near the surface is heightened primarily through capillary action, because lowered elevation brings saline groundwater nearer to the surface, therefore increasing evaporation rather than reducing temperature inversions.
