A yardang is a streamlined hill carved from bedrock or any consolidated or semi consolidated material by the dual action of wind abrasion ,dust&sand and deflation.aman sharma
Yes, yardang is a geographical term. It refers to a streamlined landform created by wind erosion in arid regions, typically found in desert environments. Yardangs have a unique shape, often resembling a elongated ridge or hill.
Zeugen rocks are tabulated horizontally, while yardangs are tabulated vertically.
Deflation is when the top layer of fine sediment or soil is picked up by the wind and reveals larger rock pieces underneath. One land feature produced by deflation is call Desert pavement, which is a surface made out of small rocks. Deflation Hollows are Bowl-shaped areas caused by -what else but- deflation.
Wind erosion can create surface features such as sand dunes, ventifacts (rocks shaped by abrasion), and yardangs (elongated ridges). These features are typically found in arid or semi-arid regions where wind is a dominant erosional force.

A yardang is a wind-eroded landform characterized by elongated ridges with steep sides, typically found in arid regions. They are formed by the abrasive action of wind-blown sand and are oriented parallel to prevailing wind directions. Yardangs can vary in size, from small features to large formations several meters high.

Wind can form landforms such as sand dunes, hoodoos, and yardangs through processes like erosion, deposition, and abrasion. These landforms are shaped by the constant movement of wind carrying and depositing sand and sediment in specific patterns.

Cox Comb is not a recognised wind erosional feature, it is a LOCAL NAME given to an elongated series of ridges running along the Cottonwood Creek valley (in the Escalante National Monument - Utah), created by erosion of upwardly-pointing folded rock layers.
