Question

The most dominant geomorphic process in deserts is

• A. Fluvial erosion
• B. Glacial erosion
• C. Aeolian action
• D. Marine erosion

Hint:

Geomorphic agents: \[ \boxed{ \begin{aligned} \text{Deserts} &\rightarrow \text{Wind (Aeolian)}\\ \text{Rivers} &\rightarrow \text{Fluvial}\\ \text{Glaciers} &\rightarrow \text{Glacial} \end{aligned} } \]

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

In desert regions, wind is the principal agent responsible for erosion, transportation, and deposition of sediments. This wind action is known as Aeolian action. Hence, \[ \boxed{\text{Aeolian action}} \] is the correct answer. Therefore, \[ \boxed{(C)} \]
