Foredunes provide many environmental and ecosystem services including protection from
wave erosion and flooding hazards during storm events. While the impact of human …

In order to investigate the intermittency of the aeolian saltation, a saltation model, forced with
instantaneous velocity fields, has been introduced in a Large Eddy Simulation airflow model …

Field experiments were conducted to determine the characteristic spatial and temporal
dimensions and behavior of aeolian streamers and to identify the processes responsible for …

Aeolian processes, involving the entrainment, transport, and deposition of sediment by the
wind, are important geomorphic processes operating in arid regions. This chapter, in …

Ephemeral aeolian sand strips are commonplace on beaches. Their formation during high
energy sand transport events often precedes the development of protodunes and their …

Wind flow and sand transport intensity were measured on the seaward slope of a vegetated
foredune during a 16 h storm using an array of sonic anemometers and Wenglor laser …

Drylands are characterised by patchy vegetation, erodible surfaces and erosive aeolian
processes. Empirical and modelling studies have shown that vegetation elements provide …

During a field experiment designed to measure wind flow and sediment transport over the
beach and foredune at Greenwich Dunes, Prince Edward Island National Park …

Vertical profiles of aeolian sediment flux are commonly modeled as an exponential decay of
particle (mass) transport with height above the surface. Data from field and wind‐tunnel …

Horizontal variability is often cited as one source of disparity between observed and
predicted rates of aeolian mass flux, but few studies have quantified the magnitude of this …
