Produktbeschreibung

Deserts, often perceived as barren landscapes, are in reality dynamic ecosystems shaped by geological and biological processes. Desert Sand explores the earth sciences behind these arid environments, from dune formation to the unique adaptations of desert life. The book highlights how weathering and erosion break down rocks into sand, which wind and water then transport to form expansive sand seas. It also reveals the surprising complexity beneath the desert's apparent simplicity, emphasizing the interplay between geological, meteorological, and biological factors.

The book progresses by first examining the geological processes that create deserts, then focusing on how dunes form and the physics of sand movement. It then shifts to the resilience of desert life, exploring how plants and animals survive with limited water and extreme temperatures.

Drawing upon scientific research, including geological surveys and ecological field studies, Desert Sand integrates earth sciences, geography, and biology to offer a holistic understanding of these fascinating ecosystems.
