Wind speed and sediment transport recovery in the lee of a vegetated and denuded nebkha within a nebkha dune field

Field observations of scaled wind speed and sand transport recovery in the lee of a nebka within a field of nebkhas and then subsequently for the nebkha denuded of its vegetation cover were collected.
