“…This paper introduces the Journal of Geophysical Research ‐ Planets special issue including some of the works presented at the workshop. This special issue follows a series of collections from previous meetings (Bishop, 2014; Bourke et al., 2010; Chojnacki & Telfer, 2017; Zimbelman, 2014; Zimbelman et al., 2013). Most of the papers from this collection focus on Martian aeolian landforms and their understanding through terrestrial analogs (Wang et al., 2018), laboratory experiments (Bristow & Moller, 2018), imagery and numerical/atmospheric modeling (Baker, Newman, et al., 2018; Banks et al., 2018; Chojnacki et al., 2018; Day & Catling, 2018; Fenton et al., 2018; Silvestro et al., 2020; Siminovich et al., 2019; Sullivan et al., 2020; Urso et al., 2018; Yizhaq, Siminovich, et al., 2021; Zimbelman & Foroutan, 2020).…”

Aeolian landforms are widespread in our solar system. Understanding the exact nature and processes of formation of these features are challenging tasks necessitating a strong collaboration between scientists with different skills and scientific backgrounds. This paper describes the special issue for the 5th International Planetary Dunes Workshop, which includes 15 research papers and three commentaries. Among the 18 papers included in this collection, 16 cover Martian aeolian science and two Titan aeolian science. The papers presented focus on bedform morphology and dynamics via remote sensing data, modeling, analogs studies and laboratory experiments. Here we put the main results of the papers in their appropriate scientific context and discuss potential future lines of research.
