Wind erosion is the process by which wind carries and moves particles such as sand, soil, and other debris from one place to another. This process can be similar to sandblasting in that both actions involve the abrasive impact of particles being carried by wind to erode or strip away surfaces over time.
Abrasion.
Deflation is wind erosion that can be compared to sandblasting. It occurs when wind removes fine particles like silt and clay from the ground, leaving behind coarser particles like sand and gravel. This process can gradually wear down and erode surfaces over time.
Saltation erosion leaves pebbles and boulders behind. This type of erosion occurs when the wind picks up sediment particles and hurls them against larger rocks, causing abrasion and erosion.
A sandstorm is very similar to sandblasting.
One example of wind erosion that can be compared to sandblasting is deflation. Deflation occurs when wind removes loose particles of soil and sand from the ground, similar to how sandblasting removes materials from a surface. Over time, deflation can lead to the formation of depressions in the landscape, such as desert pavement.

Sandblasting of rock by wind-blown particles is referred to as abrasion. It is the process of scraping or wearing away of rock particles.

A sandstorm is very similar to sandblasting.
The wind picks up grains of sand and it is the sand that weathers the rocks, often creating weird shapes.

Obviously rates for both can be similar or different, however aeolian (wind) erosion has nothing to do with water, and water (rain, sea level changes, floods) has nothing to do with wind. Both can alter a landscape.
