Aeolian Processes on Earth and Other Planetary Bodies

Session ID#: 161742

Session Description:
Aeolian processes shape landscapes throughout our Solar System. Spacecraft continue to reveal evidence of past and present aeolian activity on bodies other than Earth: from dust devils and aeolian sedimentary rock strata on Mars to dunes on Titan and Pluto. Earth observations, experiments, and theories have provided a basis for assessing and predicting aeolian processes on other planetary bodies. However, integrating Earth and planetary discoveries is essential to understand and interpret aeolian processes across a broad range of planetary atmospheres and landscapes. Existing models are challenged by rare but valuable planetary meteorological and aeolian datasets, providing new understanding of fundamental processes. This session welcomes presentations on work that increases our understanding of modern and ancient aeolian processes across our Solar System. Submissions on integrating planetary and terrestrial knowledge, or exploring new ideas, instruments, and methodologies, are especially encouraged.

The session will consist of oral and poster presentations, both in-person and online. Live Q&A options will be available to online attendees. We also propose to have online poster presenters give a short summary of their posters and take questions during the discussion period of oral sessions, to increase exchange between in-person and online participants.

For more information about possible extra activities - such as a “pod” reservation to view the online-only poster discussion during the poster session, or a mixer during the meeting week - see https://bit.ly/aeolianAGU2022 or email claire@aeolisresearch.com
