density profiles reasonably well. The results suggest that the decay with height of mass flux density of sediments dominated by saltation particles as in the present study tends to follow a modified exponential function law, but a modified power function
law replaces the modified exponential function law when the height extends to a level high enough to be dominated by suspension particles.
