Short summary
This work is on saltation (sand motion). Most earlier studies considered only the mean features rather than the turbulent characteristics of saltation. Related to this are uncertainties in saltation model parameters. We study these issues using field measurements. We analyse saltation intermittency and spectrum and estimate the probabilistic distribution of model parameters. This work is part of our effort to develop a more general saltation model.
