Abstract
Wind plays a major role in influencing the appearance and landforms of the desert, through the processes of wind erosion represented by the processes of winnowing and wind erosion, as well as its role wind sedimentation in the study area. The measurement of wind pressure strength was measured to show the size of wind deflation, and it became clear that the monthly rates of wind pressure strength in the study area start with a gradual rise starting from the month of March, which amounted to (0.70, 1.47) kg/m2 according to NASA and Rafha data, respectively, to reach its peak in April. , to reach (1.55) kg / m2, according to the data of the Rafha station, while the highest monthly rate of wind pressure strength was recorded in July in the NASA data, reaching (1.06) kg / m2, and it maintains these rates until September, as the gradual decrease in the strength of wind pressure begins, which reached during this month (0.57 and 0.83) kg / m2 according to data from NASA and Rafha, respectively. The inductive capacity of the winds was also measured by using the soil susceptibility index to wind erosion, and according to this indicator, the inductive capacity of the winds ranged between (-0.02) and (+0.41). While the wind potential ranged according to Chepil's equation between (11888.55 - 11048.73), and it falls within the range of very high wind erosion.
