Abstract:The effect of near-surface wind on sand particles is an important process that affects substance transport, landform evolution, and climate change on Earth, Mars, and other terrestrial planets (Bagnold, 1941;Kroy et al., 2002;Shao, 2008). On a smaller scale, saltation of sand particles is a direct driving factor for the erosion of dunes and the release of dust on the surface (Bagnold, 1935;Diniega et al., 2017). Saltation can be divided into four physical processes-the surface particles are triggered by aerody… Show more
