Subaqueous dunes are formed on the KwaZulu-Natal outer-shelf due to sediment transport by the Agulhas Current (geostrophic current). These dunes occur within two dune fields at depths of -35 to -70 m. The net sediment transport direction is south, but short-period reversals form northward-migrating bedforms. A bedform hierarchy has been recognized in the dune fields comprising a system of three...
