The transport of sand and dust by wind is a potent erosional force, creates sand dunes and
ripples, and loads the atmosphere with suspended dust aerosols. This paper presents an …

Predicting the morphodynamics of sedimentary landscapes due to fluvial and aeolian flows
requires answering the following questions: Is the flow strong enough to initiate sediment …

Wind-driven sand transport generates atmospheric dust, forms dunes, and sculpts
landscapes. However, it remains unclear how the flux of particles in aeolian saltation—the …

A major advance in the study of wind-blown sand started seventy years ago with the seminal
work of Bagnold [1]. Since then and in particular in the last decades, important progress has …

This paper reviews the literature on the nature of aeolian creep, the field and wind tunnel
methods used to measure creep transport, the relative contribution of creep transport to total …

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 …

Using particle‐scale simulations of nonsuspended sediment transport for a large range of
Newtonian fluids driving transport, including air and water, we determine the bulk transport …

We report wind-tunnel measurements on aeolian sand transport aiming at characterizing the
distribution of the length and height of trajectories of the saltating particles. We employ a …

Sublimation of drifting snow, which is significant for the balances of mass and energy of the
polar ice sheet, is a complex physical process with intercoupling between ice crystals, wind …

Nonsuspended sediment transport (NST) refers to the sediment transport regime in which
the flow turbulence is unable to support the weight of transported grains. It occurs in fluvial …
