Measuring and modeling the effect of surface moisture on the spectral reflectance of coastal beach sand.
Surface moisture is an important supply limiting factor for aeolian sand transport, which is the primary driver of coastal dune development. As such, it is critical to account for the control of surface moisture on available sand for dune building. Optical remote sensing has the potential to measure...
