Question

Wind erosion is more prominent in the deserts.

Solution

Winds that carry with themselves a huge amount of sand, dust particles and gravel are a strong agent of erosion. Deserts, due to lack of vegetation, are more prone to erosion. The absence of vegetation, which holds the land firmly, results in the sand laying loose that causes the erosion.
