Aeolian Ripple Migration and Associated Creep Transport Rates

Aeolian Ripple Migration and Associated Creep Transport Rates

Wind-formed ripples are distinctive features of many sandy aeolian environments, and their development and migration are basic responses to sand transport via saltation. Using data from the literature and from original field experiments, we presented empirical models linking dimensionless migration...
