Genesis of coastal dune fields with vegetation
Vegetation greatly affects the formation and dynamics of dune fields in coastal areas. In the present work, we use dune modelling in order to investigate the genesis and early development stages of costal dune fields in the presence of vegetation. The model, which consists of a set of coupled equations for the turbulent wind field over the landscape, the saltation flux and the growth of vegetat...
متن کاملIdentification of Sand Dune Sources in the East Sistan, Iran by Using Mineralogical and morphoscopic Characterization of Sediments
Sedimentation in the dune fields of the Sistan Plain of Iran is the result of deposition of fine-grained sediment downstream of the Helmand River. Due to poor adhesion and low moisture content of soil particles, and the strong renowned Levar wind, dune fields mostly of Barchan and Nebkha types are created. This study aims to assess the physical, morphological and mineralogical characteristics o...
متن کاملEffects of disturbance on vegetation by sand accretion and erosion across coastal dune habitats on a barrier island
Coastal geomorphology and vegetation are expected to be particularly sensitive to climate change, because of disturbances caused by sea-level rise and increased storm frequency. Dunes have critical reciprocal interactions with vegetation; dunes create habitats for plants, while plants help to build dunes and promote geomorphological stability. These interactions are also greatly affected by dis...
متن کاملThe Influence of Hydrogeology Characteristics on Sand dune movement (Case study: Daranjir playa)
Introduction About 1/4th of the world deserts is covered with Aeolian sand (McKee, 1979; Ghadiry et al., 2012). Sand dunes are considered as one of the most important geomorphic features of such environments the formation of which shows the abundant resources of sand, the sand-moving powerful wind and the suitable conditions for sediment deposit (Tsoar, 2001; Michel et al, 2018). The most sign...
متن کاملNature of Coastal Aquifers in Parts of East Coast,
Coastal aquifers of Andhra Pradesh form a part of a discontinuous strip of alluvium along the East Coast of India. These aquifers comprise ridge like features generated by tidal action and the deltaic fluvial deposits. They show many of the characteristic morphological features of stream and deltaic sediments, like channel bars, levees, etc., Their maximum thickness is reported to be around 400...
