Q. Why wind is the most effective agent of erosion in the deserts?

Wind is the most effective agent of erosion in the deserts because of the absence of the vegetation cover. Little or no vegetation cover in the deserts makes the soil particles loose. As a result they are easily transported by wind.
Other agents of erosion like water are hardly present in such regions, making wind the most effective one.
