Remote sensing techniques in the investigation of aeolian sand dunes: A review of recent advances
Z Zheng, S Du, H Taubenböck, X Zhang - Remote Sensing of Environment, 2022 - Elsevier
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 …

What sets aeolian dune height?
Wherever a loose bed of sand is subject to sufficiently strong winds, aeolian dunes form at
predictable wavelengths and growth rates. As dunes mature and coarsen, however, their …
