Aeolian Bedform Grain Properties at Gale Crater from Vera Rubin Ridge to the Sands of Forvie
Abstract
Grain sizes were measured at several aeolian bedforms, with sand grains 50-150 µm in length the most abundant on and within active aeolian bedforms. Larger ripple crests had coarser grains, inactive bedforms had granules and pebbles armoring them.
