Ventifacts are one of those features representing the dominance of wind erosion activities as spectacular shapes and can be found in many desert areas of Iran. Different kinds of desert pavements can be seen even in the volcanic plateau of Lut Desert such as Gandom Beryan and Sarzamin-e Siah (black land). Lee dunes and sand ramps as aeolian landforms show wind erosion process in desert areas.
The highest nebkha of the world is located at the west and south part of Lut Desert (Mahmoudi in Lit Humanit Fac J 24(1–2):299–314, 1977 Maghsoudi et al. Other shapes of wind-eroded landforms are nebkhas in the region. The biggest one is Yallan Sand Sea in the Lut Desert. Ergs are one of those landforms that abounds in the east and middle part of the country. In Iran, we can almost find many factors affecting the development of aeolian landforms such as sediment supply, smooth and flat surface, and intense of prevailing wind, in almost all desert aeolian landforms.
