In this study historical aerial photos and detailed climatic time series are used to show the geomorphological consequences of a significant decrease in tropical cyclone frequency and intensity in eastern Australia since the early 1980s, leading to rapid dune stabilization on Earth's largest sand island and a World Heritage Site, Fraser Island, Australia. It is shown that cyclone frequency and intensity...
Vegetation greatly affects the formation and dynamics of dune fields in coastal areas. In the present work, we use dune modeling in order to investigate the genesis and early development stages of coastal 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 vegetation...
