Star dunes are formed by multiple winds converging from different directions, creating a unique, multi-armed shape with long ridges that radiate from a central point. These dunes are typically found in areas with limited vegetation and strong, consistent winds that shift and redistribute sand particles, allowing the dunes to grow and develop their distinct star shape over time.
