The Physics of Sediment Transport Initiation, Cessation, and Entrainment Across Aeolian and Fluvial Environments [PDF]
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 transport, is the flow strong enough to sustain sediment transport once ...

The dynamic atmospheric and aeolian environment of Jezero crater, Mars
Despite the importance of sand and dust to Mars geomorphology, weather, and exploration, the processes that move sand and that raise dust to maintain Mars’ ubiquitous dust haze and to produce dust storms have not been well quantified in situ, with ...

Provenance of Kalahari Sand: Paleoweathering and recycling in a linked fluvial-aeolian system
We here review what is known about the dunefields and fluvial systems of the Kalahari Basin in terms of geological setting and Quaternary dynamics and set out what has been hypothesized about the provenance of Kalahari sand so far.

Gobi is a type of desert pavement in Asia over which aeolian saltation generates atmospheric dust. However, the high‐frequency behavior of aeolian saltation over gobi is still poorly understood. In this study, coupled high‐frequency observations of three‐

The Database of Aeolian Sedimentary Architecture (DASA) records the architecture and spatio-temporal evolution of a broad range of modern and recently active aeolian systems, and of their preserved deposits in ancient successions.

An Aeolian Grainflow Model for Martian Recurring Slope Lineae.
Recurring Slope Lineae (RSL) on Mars have been enigmatic since their discovery; their behavior resembles a seeping liquid but sources of water remain puzzling.

Character and provenance of aeolian sediments in northeast Thailand
Aeolian activity is not generally associated with the humid tropics, and although reports of loess-like soils in various locations in southeast Asia exist, these mainly lack the detailed analysis to set them in meaningful spatial or historical context ...
