Abstract

A simple computational model is proposed that reproduces various aspects of the complex dynamics of dunes such as the barchan dunes formation process, the evolution process from a barchan dune to a seif dune, the network-dunes formation under time-dependent directional winds, etc. Although this model may be oversimplified in several respects, there is a hope that it helps us to sift relevant factors out the vast sea of numerous factors influencing the rich dynamics of desert dunes.
