What to Focus On

  • A desert gets generally below 25 cm rainfall annually.
  • Deserts cover about 30 per cent of Earth’s surface.
  • Most deserts occur on western continental margins between 20° and 30° north and south.
  • Wind acts by erosion, transportation, and deposition.
  • Deflation removes loosened particles.
  • Abrasion wears rocks down like sandpaper.
  • Deflation hollows are simple depressions cut by wind.
  • Blow outs are saucer-shaped depressions.
  • An oasis forms where deflation cuts the water table.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

All desert landforms are made in the same way, so dunes, hollows, rocks, and valleys are all just wind-deposited features.

Barkhan and seif dunes are the same because both are sand dunes.

If a dune has two horns, it must be a seif dune.
