Hydroclimatic changes associated with global warming over the past 50 years have been
documented widely, but physical landscape responses are poorly understood thus far …

For more than four decades remote sensing images have been used to document and
understand the evolution of aeolian sand dunes. Early studies focused on mapping and …

Untitled Page 1 Page 2 GEOMORPHOLOGY OF DESERT DUNES Sand dunes cover up to a

Based on four decades of research by Professor Andrew Goudie, this volume provides a
state-of-the-art synthesis of our understanding of desert geomorphology. It presents a truly …

Over the past 10 to 15 years there has been a rising interest in interactions between aeolian
and fluvial processes from geomorphologists and sedimentologists. This reflects recognition …

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 …

The Botucatu Formation consists of eolian sandstones that cover a large area of the central
portion of South America, being one of the most impressive occurrences of continental …

Historically, fluvial and aeolian processes in dryland environments have been viewed as
mutually exclusive. However, recent research indicates that in many regions dryland aeolian …
