Abstract
In this study, numerical and weakly nonlinear analyses of the Nishimori-Ouchi continuum model for windblown sand, and also for a modification of that model were carried out. Overall, both versions of the model indicate that the ripple patterns drift upwind even as the sand that forms the ripples is blown downwind.
