A stony surace called desert pavement is a common feature of many deserts Which process helps form desert pavement?
Deflation of sand and silt from the surface
Does deposition result in the formation of desert pavement?
No, deflation results in the formation of desert pavement.
What erosional agents create desert pavement?
Wind is the primary erosional agent that creates desert pavement. The process is call deflation.
What is deflation in a desert?
Over the years strong winds remove all sand in an area leaving only pebbles and stones behind, known as 'desert pavement.'
What is the desert near indias border with Pakistan called?

In desert areas what process results in the information of desert pavement?
The process that forms desert pavement is called deflation.
What is it called when wind blows silt and dust away in the desert leaving a rock layer behind?
The process is called deflation and the product is called desert pavement.
In deserts deflation can sometimes create an area of rock fragments called .?
desert pavement
In deserts deflation can sometimes create an area of rock fragments called what?
In deserts, deflation can create an area of rock fragments called desert pavement. This process happens when wind removes fine-grained sediment, leaving behind a surface of closely packed stones or pebbles.
Give two land features that can form because of deflation?
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.
A stony surace called desert pavement is a common feature of many deserts Which process helps form desert pavement?
Deflation of sand and silt from the surface
Does deposition result in the formation of desert pavement?
No, deflation results in the formation of desert pavement.
How does deflation lower the surface of the desert?
Deflation lowers the surface of the desert by removing smaller particles of sand and soil through erosion caused by wind. As wind picks up loose particles from the ground, it carries them away, gradually reducing the elevation of the desert surface. Over time, deflation can create vast expanses of flat, barren land in desert regions.
What is the layer of coarse gravel in the desert?
When all the fine dust and sand has been removed by deflation (wind and/or water erosion) a layer of stones is left behind called desert pavement.
Is desert pavement commonly formed by water erosion?
No, desert pavement is caused by wind erosion - deflation.
How is desert pavement is formed?
It is formed by the geological process called deflation. Wind removes much of the soil and sand in an area of desert leaving behind a ground surface covered with rocks and gravel.
The Mojave Desert desert pavement was created through the process know as?
Desert pavement is created by a process called deflation o the removal of fine sand and soil by wind action that leaves only rocks and pebbles behind.
