Complementary classifications of aeolian dunes based on morphology, dynamics, and fluid mechanics
Dunes form where winds blow over a bed of mobile sediment grains — conditions that are common in our solar system. On Earth, dunes abound in arid continental interiors and along sandy coastlines. Dune fields have also been recognized on Venus, Mars, Saturn’s moon Titan, and Pluto. In response to the...
