Dunes in dis-equilibrium…. ? Hersen 2004 Parker Gay Jr 1999
Conclusions 1. dune research is in a healthy state! 2. measurements of airflow structure improving BUT requires improved understanding of turbulence / sediment transport relationships 3. calibration of computational models allowing greater understanding of form/flow interactions 4. results of analytical models suggest a requirement for more fieldwork focusing on: § dynamics of sediment transfers at the dune and inter-dune scale § longer time-series measurements of dune evolution
