When the winds have removed all smaller particles, the remaining surface of rocks and gravel is _____

Answer 1

When the winds have removed all smaller particles, the remaining surface of rocks and gravel is desert pavement.

What is desert pavement?

• A naturally occurring mosaic of tightly packed rocks, cobblestones, and pebbles typically seen in a desert where all smaller particles have been driven away by the wind.
• According to a widely accepted idea, sand and other tiny particles are gradually removed from desert pavements by wind and infrequent rainfall, leaving the huge chunks behind.
• Larger rock fragments are moved into position by the acts of several forces, including rain, wind, gravity, and animals.
• The development of the so-called "vesicular A" (or Av) soil horizon just below the surface of the pebbles, gravel, and small stones that make up the ground surface of desert pavements is a remarkable characteristic of these surfaces.
