  • Physics of desertification

    Edited by F. El-Baz, M.H.A. Hassan ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Deserts are parts of the Earth that receive little or no rain; 25 cm or less per year. The physical processes that act upon these parched lands are vastly different from those that shape the more humid parts of the terrestrial landmasses. In the desert, wind is a major agent of erosion and transportation. As the results of recent space missions have indicated, this is also true in the case of the ... Read more
