Influence of Lithological and Granulometric Composition of Sands on the Degree of Deflationary Processes in Western Turkmenistan
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Based on field research, the issues of dependence and activation of deflationary processes on the lithological and granulometric composition of sands with the influence of long-term wind conditions on the territory of Western Turkmenistan are revealed. In addition, under the influence of strong winds, sands are subject to processes of blowing, transport and accumulation to varying degrees. Knowledge of these features of the develop-ment of deflationary processes allows one to correctly place various types of engineering objects in the dune forms of aeolian relief and develop effective methods for their protection from sand drifts and blowing out.
