Answer 1

removes the fertile B horizon of soil

Step-by-step explanation:

Wind erosion has the capacity to remove the fertile B horizon of the soil.

The term wind erosion generally refers to the capacity of high-magnitude wind to cause damages to the terrestrial environment. Soils can get their topmost layers removed by a strong wind if there are no barriers such as vegetation to break the speed of the wind.

The topmost layers in most cases consist of humus and the fertile minerals from parent materials. When the topmost layer is lost, the soil becomes unproductive for agriculture.
