A lack of knowledge of the underlying stratigraphy is often cited as a limitation of dunefield optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) sampling campaigns. Here we examine the role of allostratigraphy in characterising aeolian structural sequences, and the implications of the relationship between visible internal structure and dune accumulation chronologies. We argue that whilst allostratigraphy offers...
A new digital atlas of the geomorphology of the Namib Sand Sea in southern Africa has been developed. This atlas incorporates a number of databases including a digital elevation model (ASTER and SRTM) and other remote sensing databases that cover climate (ERA-40) and vegetation (PAL and GIMMS). A map of dune types in the Namib Sand Sea has been derived from Landsat and CNES/SPOT imagery. The atlas...
