Despite widespread recognition that landforms are complex Earth systems with process-
response linkages that span temporal scales from seconds to millennia and spatial scales …

The study of aeolian geomorphological systems over the last half century has advanced
along several important fronts, supported by developments in technologies and analytic …

Aeolian sediment transport is influenced by a variety of bed surface properties, like moisture,
shells, vegetation, and nonerodible elements. The bed surface properties influence aeolian …

Aeolian transport of sand and dust is driven by turbulent winds that fluctuate over a broad
range of temporal and spatial scales. However, commonly used aeolian transport models do …

The dune toe is the boundary at the beach-dune interface that is important to our
understanding of foredune development, storm-impact assessments, and management …

Coastal foredunes provide the first line of defense against rising sea levels and storm surge
and for this reason there is increasing interest in understanding and modeling foredune …

Mega nourishments are intended to enhance growth and resilience of coastal dunes on
medium to long time scales by stimulation of natural sediment transport processes. The …

Coastal foredune evolution involves complex processes and controls that result from the
interaction of aeolian and nearshore dynamics. No studies to date have quantified and …

Surface moisture plays a key role in determining erodibility of sandy and dusty surfaces in
semi-arid and coastal environments. Where aeolian processes are active, sedimentation …

Transverse sand dunes located within the supratidal zones of beaches are a significant
geomorphic feature along sand-dominated coasts worldwide and are generated by strong …
