While it is no more vulnerable than anywhere else, the fact that it is a small island means that proportionally the there is more coastline than for a larger island. Also many of the rocks from which it is comprised are relatively soft and the monocline running though the island sets them at an inclination which means that wave action can remove allot of material. However compare errosional rates on the island to those seen in Norfolk and you will see that relatively the island is not suffering too badly.

How does over-farming an overgrazing make some lands vulnerable to wind erosion?
Well it makes the land vulnerable to wind erosion because it has been Over-grazed so many times causing the soil to loose nutrients which in turn loosens it up and Over-Farming is just like over grazing except for the fact the same soil is used so much it loose the Nutrients and Fertility which makes that lan in particular vulnerable to Wnd Erosion.
