The Mała Panew and The Stobrawa Dune Belt. Dune sand sources and geomorphological conditioning of pathways and accumulation places

Summary: The dune field, over 120 km long, is located in the eastern part of the Silesian Lowland and the western part of the Silesian-Cracow Highland in the river basins of the Mała Panew and the Stobrawa. The proposed name for this dune field is the Mała Panew and the Stobrawa Dune Belt. It differs from the surrounding area that lack or have few dunes. Thus, it allowed to avoid the interference of aeolian processes from other dune fields. The belt was formed in the Vistulian glaciation during a period of a Late Pleniglacial cold desert. Alluvia formed through the interaction of aeolian and fluvial processes were the main source of dune sand. In the western part of the Belt dunes migrating towards E?S?E in lowland areas formed a compact dune field. Diversity eastward relief resulted in the formation of two arms of the Belt. The south-western arm located in an lowland area has preserved its high density and regularity of distribution of dunes from the western part of the Belt while in the north-eastern arm, which enters highland areas, the density of dunes is lower and they are distributed irregularly, depending on the varying aerodynamic conditions.
