Titan is the only moon with a substantial atmosphere, the only other thick N2 atmosphere
besides Earth's, the site of extraordinarily complex atmospheric chemistry that far surpasses …

Sand dunes are one of the most abundant aeolian landforms and play an important role in
understanding how aeolian environments evolve. Since the 1970s, remote sensing has …

Untitled Page 1 Page 2 GEOMORPHOLOGY OF DESERT DUNES Sand dunes cover up to a
quarter of many desert regions. Determining the factors that determine their shape, size and …

Simulation results are presented from a new general circulation model (GCM) of Titan, the
Titan Atmospheric Model (TAM), which couples the Flexible Modeling System (FMS) spectral …

The characteristics of the wind regime and the development of dune morphology in the
Taklamakan Desert have been the focus of scholars. In this study, we used ERA5 reanalysis …

Titan was a mostly unknown world prior to the Cassini spacecraft's arrival in July 2004. We
review the major scientific advances made by Cassini's Titan Radar Mapper (RADAR) …

Although dunes are very common bedforms in terrestrial sand seas, the description of linear
dune growth, either by extension or lateral accretion, is still hindered by our limited …

Linear sand dunes cover the equatorial latitudes of Saturn's moon Titan and are shaped by
global wind patterns,,. These dunes are thought to reflect present-day diurnal, tidal and …

Meridional brightness temperatures were measured on the surface of Titan during the 2004–
2014 portion of the Cassini mission by the Composite Infrared Spectrometer. Temperatures …

The equatorial regions of Saturn's moon Titan are covered by linear dunes that propagate
eastwards,,. Global climate models (GCMs), however, predict westward mean surface winds …
