High-resolution portable-OSL analysis of Vegetated Linear Dune construction in the margins of the northwestern Negev dunefield (Israel) during the late Quaternary
Abstract Vegetated Linear Dunes (VLDs) are elongated dunes whose construction is
controlled by vegetation and wind. Common in southern hemisphere drylands, they were …
