“…Multiple studies have now revealed present-day movement of sand by the wind and migration of bedforms (dunes and ripples collectively) in some environments in the current Martian climate and~6-mbar atmosphere (e.g., Banks et al, 2015;Banks et al, 2017;Bourke et al, 2008;Bridges et al, 2010Bridges et al, , 2012Bridges et al, , 2013Chojnacki et al, 2011Chojnacki et al, , 2014Chojnacki et al, , 2015Chojnacki et al, , 2017Chojnacki et al, , 2018aChojnacki et al, , 2018bFenton, 2006;Silvestro et al, 2010Silvestro et al, , 2011Silvestro et al, , 2013Silvestro et al, , 2016Sullivan et al, 2008). Dune field and sand sheet formation, activity, and stabilization, on both Earth and Mars, are driven by factors such as sediment availability and wind transport capacity, potentially initiated by changes in climatic conditions (e.g., Ayoub et al, 2014;Fenton et al, 2015Fenton et al, , 2018Kocurek, 1998;Kocurek et al, 2007;Kocurek & Lancaster, 1999;Runyon, Bridges, Ayoub, et al, 2017;Silvestro et al, 2015).…”
