Arid geomorphology

Auteur :
THOMAS, D. S. G.

Description :
The emphasis in this review is primarily on aeolian sediment entrainment and transport because several potentially valuable papers have appeared on these topics in 1990. This appears to reflect the growing interest and rigour in wind activity studies and a growing sophistication in both laboratory and field research. The final two sections of the paper do however consider some recent papers on dunes as landforms and other aspects of arid and semi-arid geomorphology.
