Size distribution and structure of Barchan dune fields [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2011
Barchans are isolated mobile dunes often organized in large dune fields. Dune fields seem to present a characteristic dune size and spacing, which suggests a cooperative behavior based on dune interaction. In Duran et al.

Migration and Morphology of Asymmetric Barchans in the Central Hexi Corridor of Northwest China

open access: yesGeosciences, 2018
Crescent-shaped barchan dunes often display an asymmetric shape, with one limb longer than the other. As shown in previous studies, asymmetric bimodal winds constitute one major cause of barchan asymmetry, but the heterogeneous conditions of sand ...

Exploring the transition between water- and wind-dominated landscapes in Deep Springs, California, as an analog for transitioning landscapes on Mars [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics, 2023
Many planetary surfaces have been shaped by eolian and fluvial processes, and understanding the resulting landscape is of critical importance to understanding changes in climate. Surface features on Earth and Mars are commonly observed using a variety of

CNN training of experimental images for "Detection and tracking of barchan dunes using Artificial Intelligence"

open access: yes, 2023
This is part of the dataset concerning the YOLO training of experimental images (Barchan dunes). In this dataset, you find the "YOLOv8 train" folder that contains the structure and images observed during lab experiments to train a CNN with ...

How attractive is a barchan dune?

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2009
The spatio-temporal behaviour of barchan dunes is investigated experimentally with downsized longitudinal barchan dune slices generated in a narrow water flow tube. The development towards a shape attractor is shown on the basis of four different starting configurations in qualitative observation and quantitative analysis.

Diachronic analysis to detect and monitor Barchan dune migration in Ain Salah (Algeria)

open access: yesGeoadria, 2022
The aim of this work is to analyze deposit patterns and their effect on urban and agricultural areas in the Ain Salah region in southern Algeria. A supervised classification of Landsat images over a 13-year period (2005, 2009, 2013, and 2017) was applied

Physiochemical Characteristics, Provenance, and Dynamics of Sand Dunes in the Arid Hexi Corridor

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Dynamic changes of aeolian landforms under changing environments in a middle-latitude desert belt is a typical problem of climate change and related landscape response.

Binary collision of barchan dunes

open access: yes, 2021
In nature, barchan dunes usually move in groups in most cases, and their sizes are roughly close to each other. A major cause of such stability is the binary collision among the dunes.
