At a Glance

Badlands comprise one of ten categories of terrestrial environments, the others being deserts, forests, hills, marshes, moors, mountains, plains, swamps, and subterranean.

A badlands is a dry area characterized by extensive erosion of the rock and soils. Erosion may be either by wind or water, or a combination, but the key is that it’s been going on for a while. Erosion can be started by rivers, glaciers, or lava flows, and later continued by wind. These landscapes can also evolve as a result of unsustainable farming, logging, or mining practices.
