Abstract
- El Valle de la Luna is renowned for its extremely low humidity, including its near lack of precipitation. Northern Chile's El Valle de la Luna, the Valley of the Moon, is a landscape defined by wild geomorphic creations that include badlands, pinnacles, sand dunes, and dry lakebeds. It is sufficient, however, to cause just enough weathering and erosion to create the captivating forms that make El Valle de la Luna so distinctive and memorable. [Extracted from the article]
