The transport of sand and dust by wind is a potent erosional force, creates sand dunes and
ripples, and loads the atmosphere with suspended dust aerosols. This paper presents an …

Aeolian processes involve the wind action on a sedimentary substrate, namely erosion,
sand transport and deposition. They are responsible for the emergence of aeolian dunes …

Observations by the Mars Science Laboratory Mast Camera (Mastcam) in Gale crater reveal
isolated outcrops of cemented pebbles (2 to 40 millimeters in diameter) and sand grains with …

The Rocknest aeolian deposit is similar to aeolian features analyzed by the Mars
Exploration Rovers (MERs) Spirit and Opportunity. The fraction of sand< 150 micrometers in …

Reconstruction of the palaeoenvironmental context of Martian sedimentary rocks is central to
studies of ancient Martian habitability and regional palaeoclimate history. This paper reports …

Context. We present an investigation of the surface properties of areas on the nucleus of
comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. Aims. We aim to show that transport of material from …

Wind blowing over sand on Earth produces decimeter-wavelength ripples and hundred-
meter–to kilometer-wavelength dunes: bedforms of two distinct size modes. Observations …

The ripple field known as “El Dorado” was a unique stop on Spirit's traverse where dust‐
raising, active mafic sand ripples and larger inactive coarse‐grained ripples interact …

Wind-driven sand transport generates atmospheric dust, forms dunes, and sculpts
landscapes. However, it remains unclear how the flux of particles in aeolian saltation—the …

Extensive evidence of landform-scale martian geomorphic changes has been acquired in
the last decade, and the number and range of examples of surface activity have increased …
