Vegetation and Induration as Sand Dunes Stabilizators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Sand dunes are found in a variety of shapes in deserts and coasts and also on the planet Mars. The basic mechanisms of dune formation could be incorporated into a continuum saltation model, which successfully reproduced the shape of the barchan dunes and

Morphology of Barchan Dunes on Earth and Mars:Classification and Scale-Invariance [PDF]

open access: yes
Morphological characteristics were measured for barchan dunes on Earth (2,686 dunes in 30 barchan fields) and Mars (720 dunes in 10 barchan fields) using satellite images. The data were used to (a) develop a new barchan classification system; (b) compare

Statistical comparisons of grain size characteristics, hydraulic conductivity, and porosity of barchan desert dunes to coastal dunes

open access: yes, 2019
Ancient dune sand environments in deserts and coasts are aquifers and hydrocarbon reservoirs that commonly have preserved high permeability (hydraulic conductivity).

Strong-wind events control barchan dune migration

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
Wind is the most important external force in shaping aeolian landforms. Yet, it remains unclear what role the strong-wind events will play in the development of aeolian landforms compared with the effect of regular winds.

Wind-transport of barchan dunes in modulated gravity

open access: yes, 2008
Barchan dunes can be found in sand barren regions under steady wind conditions. They translate in the direction of the wind while their shape remains unchanged.
