Rising air masses and cold ocean currents are some of the causes of dry lands.

Water is scarce, which is what distinguishes drylands. Drylands are regions where plant transpiration and surface evaporation balance precipitation. Drylands are defined as tropical and temperate regions with an aridity index of less than 0.65 by the United Nations Environment Program.

Drylands have two primary causes: "Climatic fluctuations" and "Human activities." agricultural operations in the fragile ecosystems of arid and semi-arid areas, which are thereby overburdened. loss of the natural vegetation cover (by taking too much fuel wood).

Valentin [98]

S waves or the secondary waves is  slower than the primary waves and moves through solid rocks and can not pass through liquid. It travels outside the earth core, and that has made seismologist to believe that the outer crust is liquid. It moves rocks up and down, side by side.

Surface Waves only travel through the earth crust. It is slower than P and S waves. It is the surface waves that cause physical destruction we notice during earthquake. The strength and extent of damage of surface waves is determined by the depth of the earthquake.
