The high tide and onshore wind that caused the problem isn't unusual but the ferocity of the damage from both has been increasing, Carroll said Monday. A revetment to guard against erosion has ...

The atmosphere facilitates processes like exfoliation, wind erosion, and the transport of dust and water, ultimately supporting plant and animal life on Earth. Without the atmosphere, the planet ...

So when monsoon hits, the heavy rains and fast wind speeds blow through the area, which moves the landscape around. It's one of the ways that the community sees the impact of erosion.

Wind generator vanes can suffer degradation by erosion, particularly at their outer edge, produced by particles (dust, sand, etc.) which are present suspended in the air.
