Direct validation of dune instability theory
Ping Lü, Clément Narteau, Zhibao Dong +6
Modern dune fields are valuable sources of information for the large-scale analysis of terrestrial and planetary environments and atmospheres, but their study relies on understandi…
Spatial and temporal development of incipient dunes
Cyril Gadal, Clément Narteau, Ryan C. Ewing +4
In zones of loose sand, wind-blown sand dunes emerge due the linear instability of a flat sedimentary bed. This instability has been studied in experiments and numerical models but…
Elongation and stability of a linear dune
O. Rozier, C. Narteau, C. Gadal +2
Compared to barchan dunes, the morphodynamics of linear dunes that elongate on a non-erodible bed is barely investigated by means of laboratory experiments or numerical simulations…
Periodicity in fields of elongating dunes
Cyril Gadal, Clément Narteau, Sylvain Courrech du Pont +2
Dune fields are commonly associated with periodic patterns that are among the most recognizable landscapes on Earth and other planetary bodies. However, in zones of limited sedimen…
Incipient bedforms in a bidirectional wind regime
Cyril Gadal, Clément Narteau, Sylvain Courrech du Pont +2
Most terrestrial sand seas form at `horse' latitudes, where the wind direction exhibits seasonal variation. Here, we extend the two-dimensional linear stability analysis of a flat…
Methane storms as a driver of Titan's dune orientation
Benjamin Charnay, Erika Barth, Scot Rafkin +5
Titan's equatorial regions are covered by eastward propagating linear dunes. This direction is opposite to mean surface winds simulated by Global Climate Models (GCMs), which are o…
