Sand dunes are a globally important depositional landform and
sedimentary system. Their origins and dynamics are important in
understanding how deserts have evolved in response to climate
change and changes in sand supply and mobility, and how they will
continue to evolve in the future. This book provides a
state-of-the-art review of the characteristics of desert dunes and
their sediments, and explores their dynamics on timescales from
days to millennia as they respond to changes in wind speed and
direction, precipitation and sand supply. This extensively revised
edition reflects the advances in our understanding of desert dunes,
their dynamics and history; and covers recent developments
including the luminescence dating revolution, ground penetrating
radar and advances in numerical modeling. Also covering dunes on
Mars and Titan, this authoritative reference is a must-have for
researchers and graduate students working on desert dunes and
aeolian geomorphology.
