Modeling Multi‐Fraction Coastal Aeolian Sediment Transport With Horizontal and Vertical Grain‐Size Variability

CO van IJzendoorn, C Hallin, A Reniers… - Journal of …, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
Grain size affects the rates of aeolian sediment transport on beaches. Sediment in coastal
environments typically consists of multiple grain‐size fractions and exhibits spatiotemporal …

Local wind regime induced by giant linear dunes: comparison of ERA5-land reanalysis with surface measurements

C Gadal, P Delorme, C Narteau, GFS Wiggs… - Boundary-Layer …, 2022 - Springer
Emergence and growth of sand dunes results from the dynamic interaction between
topography, wind flow and sediment transport. While feedbacks between these variables are …

Field evidence for the initiation of isolated aeolian sand patches

P Delorme, JM Nield, GFS Wiggs… - Geophysical …, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
Sand patches are one of the precursors to early stage protodunes and occur widely in both
desert and coastal aeolian environments. Here we show field evidence of a mechanism to …

The Evolution of Turbulence Producing Motions in the ABL Across a Natural Roughness Transition

JP Cooke, DJ Jerolmack, GI Park - arXiv preprint arXiv:2406.05163, 2024 - arxiv.org
Landforms such as sand dunes act as roughness elements to Atmospheric Boundary Layer
(ABL) flows, triggering the development of new scales of turbulent motions. These turbulent …

Detection and characterization of aeolian sand strips on the beach using permanent laser scanning

CO van IJzendoorn, K Boomaars, SE Vos… - …, 2024 - journals.psu.edu
Aeolian sand strips are bedforms that often form on the beach during high wind events. The
sand strips can move across the beach resulting in sediment transport, but these sediment …

Computational Study on Rough Wall-Bounded Flows and their Effects at Low and Very-High Reynolds Numbers

J Cooke - 2024 - repository.upenn.edu
Many relevant engineering fluid dynamics problems, such as turbulent flow over an airplane
or transport processes in geophysical flows, contain wall-bounded regions that form …
