Full Title: Interpretation of Windflow Characteristics from Eolian Landforms
Editors: Ronald W. Marrs and Kenneth E. Kolm
Eolian landforms, which result from interactions between wind and the Earth's surface, serve as a long-term integrator of the effects of the strongest wind regimes in a region. Properly interpreted, they are a source of current and historical data that can provide basic information needed to identify critical windflow characteristics, even in the absence of wind measurement. Nine papers synthesize research in which the traditional procedures and knowledge of stratigraphy, sedimentology, and geomorphology are combined with new remote sensing and statistical methods to decipher relations between eolian processes and resulting landforms.
