history: I would love to visit a desert sometime.
knowledge: A desert is a barren area of landscape where little precipitation occurs and consequently living conditions are hostile for plant and animal life.
response: I see, so you want to visit an area that is barren and little rain happens.

I haven't been but I am fascinated by a place that doesn't get much water and would be a hostile environment to get plants to grow.
knowledge: The lack of vegetation exposes the unprotected surface of the ground to the processes of denudation.
response: I see, did you also know that because there is not a lot of vegetation, the ground surface is exposed to denudation?

Yeah I did actually lol. Also doesn't the wind affect the objects there?
knowledge: Wind-blown sand grains striking any solid object in their path can abrade the surface.
response: Well, they can move sand grains, which can then wear away the object's surface.

I see, well that does explain how the stuff there in movies and such talk about it being eroded away and such. Is there anything else interesting you can share?
knowledge: Rain falling on hot rocks can cause them to shatter and the resulting fragments and rubble strewn over the desert floor is further eroded by the wind.
response: Yes, if a hot rock has rain fall on top of it, that action may result in the rock shattering!

That sounds cool to see in action to be honest. Do you know how deserts are formed?
knowledge: Deserts are formed by weathering processes as large variations in temperature between day and night put strains on the rocks which consequently break in pieces.
response: They are from weathering processes, rocks break apart due to a high fluctuation in the temperatures between the morning and night.
