Wind erosion is the movement of material by the wind and occurs when the lifting power of moving air is able to exceed the force of gravity and the friction which holds an object to the surface. The movement of sand dunes is an example of wind erosion.

What is the lifting and removal of fine sediments by wind?
It is called wind erosion .
What are two types of wind erosion?
There are different types of wind erosion. The main types of wind erosion include surface erosion, saltation, soil creep and suspension.
What are types of erosions?
There is water erosion, wind erosion, ice erosion, basically anything that breaks down earth materials is erosion.
How is wind erosion different from water and glacier erosion?
Wind does not carry heavy objects.
Why does Venus has little wind erosion?
Venus has very little wind erosion because of the slow rotation of the planet. Without rotation, it lacks significant wind and therefore lacks wind erosion.
How does erosion effect wind?
erosion doesn't effect wind, wind causes erosion
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.

It is called wind erosion .
Wind as an erosional force is?
wind is an agent of erosion which causes sheet 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.
Where does wind erosion primly occur?
Wind Erosion mainly occurs near the ocean
How wind erosion different from water and glacier erosion?
Wind does not carry heavy objects.
