	Intro to Land Sailing
		Land sailers – also called land yachts, sand yachts, and dirt boats – are wheeled, cart-like boats that move by sail power on firm ground and paved surfaces.
		Land sailing is becoming one of the hottest sports, and it's rapidly making a transition from a fringe activity to a more accessible and enjoyable sport for people of all ages.
		More recently, land sailing became a popular "underground" sport in the 1960s and 1970s, as several companies introduced vehicles that were suitable for the dry lakebeds of the American Southwest, as well as the expanses of Australia and New Zealand.

	IN Sand Use Policies
		Uses of type III foundry sand in land application or as a soil amendment not authorized by this guidance document may, nonetheless, be approved by IDEM as research and demonstration projects under the requirements set forth in 327 IAC 6.1-4-19.
		Foundry sand may not be stored or land applied in a manner that would cause fugitive dust, fugitive particulate matter, or a violation of State or federal surface water or groundwater quality standards.
		Foundry sand may not be stored or land applied within areas of Karst topography, in wetlands, in critical habits of endangered species, or in a floodway unless special arrangements are made to prevent environmental damage to these areas.

		According to ten-year monitoring data, land desertification in northern China is expanding at an annual rate of 2 103.2 km², especially in the agropastoral regions.
		In the "three-north" region the ratio between greening velocity and desertification velocity is one to eight, indicating that rehabilitation of decertified land in China is relatively slow.
		In light of increased population, demands on land and decreased farmland fertility, proper management of land resources is indispensable if the local economy and living standards are to be maintained.

	3. Definitions and methodologies (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Zhu describes desertification as the degradation process in environments similar to that of deserts consisting of blown and undulating sand sheets and mobile dunes which occurs when fragile ecosystems such as those with loose sandy surfaces in arid semi-arid and sub-humid zones are exposed to drought and frequent wind.
		Generally, the older afforested sand dunes have more bacteria and fungi as compared to newly afforested sand dunes; the microbial numbers are higher in upper layers than in sub-soil layers.
		In newly afforested sand dunes the actinomyces are higher than in shifting sand, while in the older afforested sand dunes the actinomyces number less than in newly afforested sand dunes (cf.

	Sand
		Wind speeds up on their crests and sand from the face of the dunes is sucked up into the low pressure space and carried over the dunes.
		Sand bars are poised between the forces of incoming waves, river current, reflecting waves and undertow from the incline of the shore.
		They stir up sand from the bottom and move it up onto the beach in watery veils, so the beach front is gradually raised, tide by tide, layer by layer.

	Sand Land
		Research at the University of Minnesota's granular material laboratory focuses on two unique, self-segregating phenomena: axial segregation of rotated mixtures of glass beads and avalanche stratification of poured mixtures of sand and sugar.
		Initially homogeneous, binary mixtures of sand and sugar, when poured against the closed edge of a "quasi-two-dimensional" Hele-Shaw cell (similar to an ant farm) will spontaneously form alternating stratified layers (note the above icon).
		We have used digital images taken with a CCD camera to determine the wavelength and degree of segregation of the bands as a function of plate separation of the cell and flow rate.

	MoDNR Land Reclamation - Sand and Gravel Permitting (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		In the early 1990’s, the Land Reclamation Program was the permitting and enforcement authority that both issued permits for this type of mining activity and also oversaw the proper removal of sand and gravel from Missouri’s streams.
		The court found that "de-minimus" or incidental fall back of sand and gravel into the stream from which it was being excavated did not constitute the placement of fill by the mining operation.
		In January 1999, the Land Reclamation Program resumed the former position of the regulatory authority over this type of mining activity and bases this authority upon the provision of the state’s Land Reclamation Act.

	Imperial Sand Dunes: Description (DesertUSA)
		Most sand grains land high on the leeward slope, which tends to over steepen the slope so that from time to time thin tongues of sand slide down it.
		Although sand dunes are often viewed as being lifeless, a number of specialized plants and animals have adapted to this unique environment.
		Constant movement of the sand and a lack of water near the surface have produced a relatively sparse vegetative cover on the dunes themselves, but a number of species are common.

	Coastal Erosion and Beach Loss in Hawaii
		These losses occurred where beaches were starved for sand in front of seawalls and other shoreline structures designed to protect buildings and coastal lands.
		Beaches recover from these natural changes when smaller waves move the sand back onto the beach and winds blow it into the dunes to be captured by coastal vegetation.
		Also, if the amount of sand from the seaward side is reduced, a beach will erode the land behind it to maintain a constant sand supply.

		Corrugated copper tubes are filled with coloured sand, and then rubbed or gently tapped to release a tiny flow of sand, as each part of the mandala is ‘drawn’.
		Usually used for the purpose of bestowing initiations, sand mandalas are traditionally destroyed and placed in the ocean or rivers, to bless the waters and beings who live in or use the water.

		While small amounts may not pose a threat to the fishery or to wildlife habitat, the law does not differentiate on the size of a project.
		You may also contract with a registered state land surveyor who isqualified to perform such surveys if time is a critical factor.

		During the day, the land surface (sand, clay, soil, asphalt) heats up more than the ocean surface.
		Because of this temperature difference, air rises over land while air over the ocean sinks, pulling air from sea to land.
		During the night, the ocean is warmer than land—air sinks over land while air rises over the ocean.
