Arid Lands Geography

Arid lands tend to experience mechanical weathering as the major process and others like salt wedging are as well widespread. Due to less soil covering it, the bed rock is more exposed to erosive forces. the bed rock allows very little water to pass through hence there is substantial runoff observed. Lack of vegetation also permits the formation of certain features like the dunes due to the impact of wind acting on bare land
Arid lands also have huge sand collection where water sink to the ground and prevent overland flow making erosion to take place where heavy rains are observed that can move the sand and form wind-blown sand features. Flush floods are more regular in arid lands and an rainfall is intense but lasts for a short time.
