Origin
Dunes are formed by the accumulation of wind-blown sand. When wind picks up sand from the ground, it carries it away and deposits it in one place. Over time, these deposits build up and form a dune. The shape and size of a dune depends on the wind speed and direction, the amount of sand available, and the presence of vegetation.
Meaning
A dune is a hill or ridge of sand that is formed by the accumulation of wind-blown sand. Dunes are typically found in coastal areas, deserts, and other dry regions.
