The dune size distribution and scaling relations of barchan dune fields [PDF]
, 2008 Barchan dunes emerge as a collective phenomena involving the generation of thousands of them in so called barchan dune fields. By measuring the size and position of dunes in Moroccan barchan dune fields, we find that these dunes tend to distribute ...

When dunes move together, structure of deserts emerges [PDF]
, 2012 Crescent shaped barchan dunes are highly mobile dunes that are usually presented as a prototypical model of sand dunes. Although they have been theoretically shown to be unstable when considered separately, it is well known that they form large ...

Dune field pattern formation and recent transporting winds in the Olympia Undae Dune Field, north polar region of Mars [PDF]
, 2010 High-Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) imagery of the central Olympia Undae Dune Field in the north polar region of Mars shows a reticulate dune pattern consisting of two sets of nearly orthogonal dune crestlines, with apparent slipfaces on ...

"Barchan" dunes in the lab [PDF]
, 2002 We demonstrate the feasibility of studying dunes in a laboratory experiment. It is shown that an initial sand pile, under a wind flow carrying sand, flattens and gets a shape recalling barchan dunes.

Matter effects at the T2HK and T2HKK experiments [PDF]
, 2017 Determining the neutrino mass hierarchy and measuring the CP-violating phase $\delta_{CP}$ are two of the main aims in neutrino physics today. The upcoming T2HK (with small matter effects and high statistics) and DUNE (with large matter effects ...
