Dunes most typically form in deserts and coastal regions. Deserts receive a lower amount of precipitation compared to other regions, and are sensitive to precipitation. During infrequent yet intense rain, the low permeability of the ground and little vegetation leads to high erosion potential, often more so than other drivers of erosion. Which of the following statements are true? A. The angle of the slip face is controlled by the wind hitting it. A stronger prevailing wind will steepen the slip face.
B. Erosional landforms in deserts tend to be formed more by water more than wind.
C. Wind is not an important process in producing depositional landforms in deserts.
D. In the Google Earth image, the prevailing wind direction is to the northeast.
E. Dunes migrate as sand on the slip face reaches and exceeds the angle of repose.
