Which outcome occurs when katabatic winds encounter desert basins?

A)Development off loess sediment deposits
B)Formation of evaporite mineral crusts
C)Intensification of chemical weathering rates
D)Expansion of desert pavement surfaces

💡 Explanation

Loess deposits occur because katabatic winds transport fine sediment long distances via Aeolian processes, therefore creating extensive deposits rather than localized weathering because the wind action causes sediment sorting.
