Remote Observations of Aeolian Saltation

Abstract

Wind-blown sediment transport can rapidly modify landscapes and produce hazardous conditions in coastal and arid environments (e.g.,

Aeolian Sand Transport on a Natural Beach with Shells and Moist Sand Patches

“…This study shows that the median grain size in the measured saltating layer is 75% lower than found at the surface. A recent study by Cohn et al . (2022) showed comparable results.…”

“…A recent study by showed comparable results. Cohn, Dickhudt, and Brodie (2022) measured grain-size characteris-tics in the field with a holographic system, Sensit sensors, and additional sediment traps and found that grain size decreased from the bed to 42.5 mm above the surface.…”
