Which process is primarily responsible for forming a 'desert pavement', a surface layer of closely packed stones in arid regions?

Options:

Deflation (wind removal of fines)
Salt weathering
Glacial plucking
Fluvial deposition

Correct answer: Deflation (wind removal of fines)

Explanation: Desert pavement forms mainly by wind deflation, which removes fine sand and dust and leaves behind a lag of cobbles and pebbles; such pavements cover thousands of square kilometers in arid areas.
