of deflation, while suspension accounts for 30–40 % and surface creep accounts for 5–25 %. Regions which experience intense and sustained erosion are...

Deflation may also refer to: A release or escape of air or gas from an inflatable, resulting in its shrinking or collapsing A mode of wind erosion Dividing...

water erosion, glacial erosion, snow erosion, wind (aeolian) erosion, zoogenic erosion and anthropogenic erosion such as tillage erosion. Soil erosion may...

deforestation, urbanization, and agriculture. Wind erosion is of two primary varieties: deflation, where the wind picks up and carries away loose particles;...

topography can accelerate flows and form jets that result in maximum erosion along the deflation basin floor and laterally expand the slopes of the blowout. Additionally...

cycle, or cycle of erosion, is an idealized model that explains the development of relief in landscapes. The model starts with the erosion that follows uplift...

breaks down as well. Attrition contributes to other types of erosion such as deflation and corrasion. Although attrition is often considered a type of...

a deflation pan. That is a natural, circular, shallow depression caused by the removal of fairly loose, mainly Pliocene, sediment by wind erosion, during...

semiconsolidated material by the dual action of wind abrasion by dust and sand and deflation (the removal of loose material by wind turbulence). Yardangs become elongated...

the U.S. Interest rates dropped to low levels by mid-1930, but expected deflation and the continuing reluctance of people to borrow meant that consumer...

Aeolian landforms, or Eolian landforms, are produced by either the erosive or depositive action of wind. These features may be built up from sand or snow...

price index) during low inflation, high inflation, hyperinflation and deflation; i.e., during all possible economic environments. During all economic...

because once the pavement forms, it acts as a barrier to resist further erosion. The small particles collect underneath the pavement surface, forming a...

The Big Hollow is a wind eroded deflation basin located to the west of Laramie, Wyoming in the United States. It is the second largest wind eroded depression...

of surface artifacts is the result of the concentration and mixing by deflation over multiple glacial-interglacial cycles. Artifacts are found, typically...

amphitheatre-like valley formed by glacial erosion Crevasse – A deep crack, or fracture, in an ice sheet or glacier Deflation hollow – Depressions in a sand dune...

of eolian process: deflation and abrasion. First, deflation may cause the light lowering of ground surface, leading to deflation hollows, plains, basins...

the construction of various infrastructure projects during widespread deflation. Public works is a multi-dimensional concept in economics and politics...

deserts consists of flat, stone-covered plains dominated by wind erosion. In "eolian deflation", the wind continually removes fine-grained material, which...

necessary, but inflation beyond a low level is not desirable. However, deflation is often seen as a worse or equal danger, particularly within Keynesian...
