An erg desert is characterized by extensive sand dunes and a significant amount of loose, wind-blown sand, often creating a visually striking landscape. In contrast, a reg desert features a stony or gravelly surface with little to no sand, resulting from the erosion of finer particles over time, which leaves behind larger stones and pebbles. While both types of deserts experience minimal precipitation, their physical characteristics and compositions differ significantly.
