Which outcome occurs when extensive loess deposits erode?

💡 Explanation

Increased river base level fluctuations arise due to loess erosion causing *aggradation* of riverbeds. This is because massive sediment influxes overwhelm the rivers, raising the riverbed and increasing variations in river flow and depth; therefore, increased river base fluctuations occur, rather than stable river flow.
