Compare and contrast abrasion and deflation. How do they affect the surface of the Earth?
and

Put the following events in order:

Grains collect to form a mound.
Wind blows sand grains until they hit an obstacle.
Wind blows over an area and causes deflation.
Vegetation grows on the dune.

Deflation can lower the lands surface by several meters. Abrasion makes pits in rocks and produce smooth, polished surfaces.
Deflation is a(n) erosion of the land by wind.
Abrasion is a form of erosion that makes pit in the rocks and produce smooth, polished surfaces.(abrasion is common in some deserts and in some cold regions with strong wind).

Ben S. said...

Deflation is when the wind blows away tiny sediments, whereas abrasion is where tiny bits of sediment are blown against rocks that they hit resulting in pitting, scarring, and scratching.

deflation lowers surface and abrasion blows stuff around.

Deflation roles over corse sediment and abrasion doesn't leave anything behind and it breaks down rocks.

Deflation is when the wind blows away tiny sediments, whereas abrasion is where tiny bits of sediment are blown against rocks that they hit resulting in pitting, scarring, and scratching.

The difference between between deflation and abrasion is that abrasion is when wind blows sediments into rocks and deflation is when wind blows across loose sediments and carries then away.

Deflation is the lowering of the land surface due to removal of fine-grained particles by the wind. and As the wind-driven sand and silt impacts on exposed rock surfaces, a form of natural sandblasting, called abrasion, occurs.

Deflation blows over loose sediments. Abrasion blows sediments into other rocks. They both move sediments from place to place. Which is how they affect the surface of the earth.

Deflation is a type of erosion the occurs when wind blows over loose sediments, removes small particles and leaves coarse sediments behind. Abasion is when wind carries sediments and wears down rock.

Deflation blows sediments which starts abrasion. Abrasion is the blowing of sand into an obstacle.

The difference between deflation and abrasion is that abrasion is really just rock friction. Meanwhile, deflation is just erosion of the land by wind.

Deflation lowers the land's surface, and abrasion makes pits in rocks, and could produce smooth surfaces after a while.

Deflation is a type of erosion that occurs when wind blows over tiny sediments, and removes small particles or sediments behind. Abrasion is when wind and weather wears down rock.

Abrasion is rocks rubbing together. Deflation is when the wind blows away sediment. Together they change the surface of the earth in many wondrous ways.

Wind blows sand grains until they hit an obstacle.
Grains collect to form a mound. (i.e. mound/dune forms on downwind side of obstacle)
Vegetation grows on the dune. - Desi (( From Yahoo ))
