Definition

desertification noun

This refers to a type of land degradation which typically occurs in semi-arid and arid (dry) regions. Due to climate changes and/or human activity, land becomes increasingly more arid and less biologically productive as bodies of water and vegetation begin to disappear from the landscape.
