The Critical Role of the Boundary Layer Thickness for the Initiation of Aeolian Sediment Transport

Thomas Pähtz, Manousos Valyrakis, Xiao-Hu Zhao +1

Here, we propose a conceptual framework of Aeolian sediment transport initiation that includes the role of turbulence. Upon increasing the wind shear stress above a threshold v…

The Cessation Threshold of Nonsuspended Sediment Transport Across Aeolian and Fluvial Environments

Thomas Pähtz, Orencio Durán

Using particle-scale simulations of non-suspended sediment transport for a large range of Newtonian fluids driving transport, including air and water, we determine the bulk transpo…

Discrete Element Method simulations of the saturation of aeolian sand transport

Thomas Pähtz, Amir Omeradžić, Marcus V. Carneiro +2

The saturation length of aeolian sand transport (), characterizing the distance needed by wind-blown sand to adapt to changes in the wind shear, is essential for accurate mode…

Well-balanced and flexible morphological modeling of swash hydrodynamics and sediment transport

Peng Hu, Wei Li, Zhiguo He +2

Existing numerical models of the swash zone are relatively inflexible in dealing with sediment transport due to a high dependence of the deployed numerical schemes on empirical sed…

Midair collisions enhance saltation

Marcus V. Carneiro, Nuno A. M. Araújo, Thomas Pähtz +1

Here we address the old question in Aeolian particle transport about the role of midair collisions. We find that, surprisingly, these collisions do enhance the overall flux substan…

Different responses of the upper ocean to typhoon Namtheun

Yuan-Jian Yang, Liang Sun, Yun-Fei Fu

The responses of the upper ocean to typhoon Namtheun in July 2004 are investigated by sea surface measurements and vertical profiles. Pre-typhoon ocean environment played an import…
