Which outcome results when soil cohesion decreases in wind-exposed regions due to intense seasonal evapotranspiration?

💡 Explanation

Increased evapotranspiration removes soil moisture needed for clay cohesion, leading to increased aeolian deflation which will remove fine particles and leave behind larger rocks, therefore causing desert pavement rather than dune stabilization because aeolian processes dominate over fluvial.
