Wind - Winds by effect: Encyclopedia II - Wind - Winds by effect

In classical terminology, Aeolian winds, or winds producing Aeolian action, are winds which produce geologic changes. Modern tornadoes and hurricanes might at times be considered to produce such changes. Largescale erosion, dune formation, and other geologic and topographic effects influenced by wind are still referred to as aeolian activity. ...
