Expert Answer
- Wind is an active agent of erosion in the desert regions.
- Winds sometimes erode the lower parts of rocks more than the upper parts resulting in the formation of mushroom rocks. Such rocks have narrower base and wider top.
- When winds blow at a great speed, they lift and transport materials from one place to the other.
- During this process, the sand falls and get deposited forming low hill kind of structures. These are known as sand dunes.
- The wind carries the extremely fine and light grains of sand to far off places. These grains of sand get deposited in large areas and are called loess. Large deposits of loess are found in China.
