Özet: Well-known from ancient times, continuously developed, and competitive with fossil fuels, wind energy is a clean and emission-free energy type. It does not create direct greenhouse gases because of lack of emission and does not directly contribute to global warming. There is no energy cost and low operating costs. It is a kind of energy which is not dependent on other countries and is very efficient in certain regions. These positive characteristics of wind energy are increasing the interest in this energy. Especially electrical energy production has come to the forefront in recent years. Another aspect of wind energy is its abrasive, and conveyor, and environment-changing effect. Studies on wind erosion are related to this negative aspect of wind energy. Since the wind energy cannot be prevented, the abrasive and conveyor effects can be reduced or stopped by the protective measures to be made on soil surface. In this study, wind energy, its features, and wind erosion in aeolian processes, and effects of wind erosion were investigated.
