Its all moisture,
wind in desert climates will pick up dry loose sand thus creating an airborn sand paper.
In humid climates the wind wont pick up as much sand/dirt because of the added weight of the water. In humid climates however the added moisture can rust if your thinking in vehicle terms.
If your thinking natural, desert climates will have smoother more rounded rock formations, while humid "wet" climates with have jagged verticle "cracks" if you will from downward flowing water.

The extreme low humidity of the dessert helps prevent rust (metal) and rot (wood) which occurs in more humid climates.

In desert weathering limestones are cliff formers. In humid weathering limestones are quickly eroded.
