What is erosion of sediments by wind called?
wind erosion
What happens to sediment when the wind slows down?
Wind affects the erosion of rock, so if the wind decreases then the erosion decreases.
What does wind erosion form?
wind erosion is by gravity and air pressure makes wind push against Earth's surface causing: wind erosion.
How are wind erosion to water erosion different?
the answer is that water erosion wets all the land but while wind keeps it dry.
What is example of erosion in the Edwards plateau?
wind erosion rain erosion
What is wind erosion that can be compared to sandblasting?
duststorm
Blank is wind erosion that can be compared to sandblasting?
Dunes!
How is wind erosion similar to sandblasting?
Tgod
What type of wind erosion leaves pebbles and boulders behind?
sandblasting
What is sandblasting of rock by wind-blown particles?
Sandblasting of rock by wind-blown particles is referred to as abrasion. It is the process of scraping or wearing away of rock particles.
What is compared to sandblasting?
A sandstorm is very similar to sandblasting.
What can be compared to sandblasting?
The force of water coming out of a fire hose can be compared to sandblasting. The force of the water is enough to knock a burly man down. The force of sandblasting is about the same and would hurt just as much.
Erosion caused by the sandblasting effect of windblown sediments is called?
abrasion
What kind of wind erosions are there?
deflation, loess, abrasion, and sandblasting.
How does erosion effect wind?
erosion doesn't effect wind, wind causes erosion
What is erosion of sediments by wind called?
wind erosion
Wind mostly erodes pieces of rock that are the size of what particles or smaller?
The wind erodes rocks by battering other small rock particles against them, like the action of sandblasting.
