Estudio del campo de vientos y del transporte eólico de sedimentos en el Istmo de Jandía (Fuerteventura)

Jandia Isthmus is characterized by an important sediment flux from the winward coast to the leeward coast. Present study empirically quantifies such movement by means of sediment traps, which allowed us to get different transport rates. Spatial and temporal variations of the aeolian flux have been c...

Description
Summary:Jandia Isthmus is characterized by an important sediment flux from the winward coast to the leeward coast. Present study empirically quantifies such movement by means of sediment traps, which allowed us to get different transport rates. Spatial and temporal variations of the aeolian flux have been correlated with the wind field in the area, as well as to other environmental factors
