“…The authors further adjusted the local concentration of sand flow through artificial interventions, including sand supply from upstream and sand bed vibration, to prolong the unsaturated dune evolution process (Y. Zhang et al, 2014bZhang et al, , 2017, and obtained results similar to numerical simulations (Zhou et al, 2016). Sand bed vibration herein induces local weightlessness, so the aerodynamic threshold of entraining sand particles is reduced; coupled with the sand supply located upstream, more sand particles enter the air, the local concentration of sand flow gets increased, and the effect of air flow on small sand piles is no longer intense erosion; instead, the pile is allowed to deform gradually as it migrates downstream.…”

“…Some studies have found that the sand content in the wind-sand flow decreases exponentially with the increase of height [10][11][12] . However, some other studies have shown that the sand flux presents a square root decreasing relationship with height 13,14 . The results of the previous studies have been obtained through measured observations, and have not yielded uniform conclusions 15,16 .…”
