Dune initiation in a bimodal wind regime
Early‐stage bedforms develop into mature dunes through complex interactions between wind, sand transport, and surface topography. Depending on varying environmental and wind conditions, the mechanisms driving dune formation and, ultimately, the shape of nascent dunes may differ markedly. In cases wh...
