From lab to landscape-scale experiments for the morphodynamics of sand dunes

We review the main processes that drive the morphodynamics of dunes, i.e. their growth in height, migration and elongation, and emphasise the contribution of experiments to the understanding of these mechanisms. The main control parameters are the sediment flux Q and the saturation length $L_{\mathr...
