✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Consideration of the available equations for prediction of aeolian sand transport led to the development of a model which relies on optimization techniques for the production of improved performance. The model has been applied to the characterization of dunesand movement in coastal environments in eastern Australia.

Wind sand transport is an important geological process on earth and some other planets. Formulating the wind sand transport model has been of continuing significance. Majority of the existing models relate sand transport rate to the wind shear velocity based on dynamic analysis. However, the wind sh

The error may have escaped notice because the expression is still dimensionally correct and it yields predictions that appe

## Abstract This paper assesses the practical use and applicability of the time fraction equivalence method (TFEM; Stout & Zobeck, 1996) of calculating a wind speed threshold for sand grain entrainment in field situations. A modification of the original method is used and is applied to 1 Hz measure
