Notes on Avalanching and Dunes | Wind Erosion
Article shared by :
This article provides a note on avalanching and dunes. Avalanching: On an unprotected large eroding field, the rate of flow increases with distance to leeward side. Soil flow is zero at the windward edge of an eroding field, but the rate increases leeward until the flow becomes maximum for the wind of specific velocity. This […]
