Fine dust emissions from active sands at coastal Oceano Dunes, California [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2019 Sand dunes and other active sands generally have a low content of fine grains and, therefore, are not considered to be major dust sources in current climate models.

The role of the reef–dune system in coastal protection in Puerto Morelos (Mexico) [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2018 Reefs and sand dunes are critical morphological features providing natural coastal protection. Reefs dissipate around 90 % of the incident wave energy through wave breaking, whereas sand dunes provide the final natural barrier against coastal flooding.

Nonlinear dynamics of sand banks and sand waves [PDF]
, 2000 Sand banks and sand waves are two types of sand structures that are commonly observed on an off-shore sea bed. We describe the formation of these features using the equations of the fluid motion coupled with the mass conservation law for the sediment ...
