Which outcome results when strong winds consistently erode material from a vegetated dune's upwind side?

💡 Explanation

Parabolic dune migration accelerates landward because deflation hollows form on the upwind side, reducing vegetation cover, this deflation process increases sand transport; therefore the dune moves more quickly inland, rather than stabilize or modify internal barchan features.
