Abstract:

Based on the main development of the research on coastal aeolian geomorphology in China from the 1980s, the important achievements in coastal aeolian geomorphology research in China are summarized, which include the types of coastal aeolian geomorphology, formation models of coastal aeolian geomorphology, coastal sand-wind movement, characteristics of coastal aeolian sediments, evolution process of coastal aeolian geomorphology as well as protection of coastal aeolian. Based on the problems of coastal aeolian geomorphology research in China, the main development aspects of coastal aeolian geomorphology research in China in the future are given, which are investigation of coastal wind-eroded landform, morphodynamics of coastal aeolian geomorphology, interaction of surfzone-beach-dune, the relation between global changes and coastal aeolian evolution process, as well as the utilization and protection of coastal aeolian resources.
