There is little understanding of the flow-field surrounding semi-vegetated linear dunes, and predictions of dune mobility are hampered by a lack of empirical data concerning windflow.

## Abstract Vegetation is a major control of dune surface activity. To assess the effect of removing vegetation from otherwise largely inactive sand‐dune surfaces, two field experiments were undertaken in the southwest Kalahari Desert of southern Africa. In the first, wind velocity profiles were me
