Definition
Plural of desiccation; multiple instances or types of the process of drying out.
Etymology
Plural form of 'desiccation,' used in scientific and technical writing. Standard English pluralization of the Latin-derived noun.
Kelly Says
In climate science, discussions of desiccations happening in different regions require plural because we're tracking multiple simultaneous drying events—the Sahara's desiccation happened over millennia while the Dead Sea desiccation is accelerating rapidly.
