Dune Geometry

Dune Geometry is a morphometric construct that characterizes the three-dimensional shape, dimensions, and spatial configuration of aeolian or fluvial dunes, distinguishing it from broader channel morphology features by its focus on the geometric attributes of individual dune forms and their influence on flow resistance and sediment transport dynamics.
