Dunes are sands blown into piles. Most desert soils are called Aridisols (dry soil). However, in really dry regions of the Sahara and Australian outback, the soil orders are called Entisols. Entisols are new soils, like sand dunes, which are too dry for any major soil horizon development.

Desert soils form in arid climates, where evaporation is more than five times the annual precipitation from rain and snow. Deserts can be hot (like the Sahara or the Mohave) or cold (like Antarctica or at high elevations) or in between (like in Wyoming, Idaho and Oregon.
