Aeolian processes and vegetation interact in many ways at different spatial and temporal scales. This presentation will posit that current understanding and models of the interactions have been somewhat limited by the focal areas of our investigations. Looking to ‘new’ applications of aeolian research forces us to critically evaluate what we know, and what we know we don’t know, about aeolian sediment transport vegetation interactions and to identify research gaps and opportunities to address them. I will draw on examples from research on rangeland wind erosion to highlight some gaps and opportunities for field studies and modelling, and for our work to have increased relevance to land management
