Hi List,

Here is a good link that briefly explains some of the terms used in
the Met Bulletin (and in general geology) to describe desert features.
 I became curious after seeing the term "deflation surface" being used
several times to describe the find areas of various Chilean
meteorites. So I went to Google and found this little gem.
