Description :
The aim of this study is to characterize the alluvial fans of the Nebraska Sand Hills, to provide a complete description of the deposits and source area, and to interpret the history and processes of their deposition. The AA. will show that local hydrology, climate, soils, dune morphology, and range management control the erosion of dunes, and these factors will be discussed to develop a model for stabilized dune erosion.
