“…The formation and development of nebkhas can be understood as the result of the intricate interaction and co‐evolution of biotic and abiotic factors. Previous studies have demonstrated the importance of vegetation, sediment supply, wind regime and, in some instances, human interference as pivotal variables in the formation of nebkhas (Goudie, 2022; Hesp, Hernández‐Calvento, Gallego‐Fernández, et al, 2021; Langford, 2000; Nickling & Wolfe, 1994; Nield & Baas, 2008; Sanromualdo‐Collado et al, 2022; Wang et al, 2008). These variables exhibit positive feedbacks, enabling nebkhas to persistently grow under favourable conditions until they reach a maximum height (Li et al, 2021).…”
