The statement that pediments are a depositional landform found in deserts is incorrect. Pediments are erosional landforms, not depositional, and they are typically associated with arid or semi-arid regions.

The statement that pediments are gently inclined rocky floors close to the mountain at their foot with or without a thin cover of debris is correct. Pediments are formed through the erosion and weathering of rocks near mountainous areas in arid regions, resulting in a sloping, rock-strewn surface.

So, only statement 2 is correct.
