Antidune Movement

Publication: Journal of Hydraulic Engineering
Volume 109, Issue 2

Abstract

A new mechanism is introduced to explain the intriguing movement of antidunes. It is suggested that this mechanism may exist concurrently with sediment erosion-deposition patterns used heretofore to explain the apparent movement of antidunes. The mechanism introduced herein may be responsible for bulk movement of antidunes.
