Sand ramps have been (and still are) neglected in geomorphological research. Only recently any awareness of their potential of being a major source of palaeoenvironmental information, thanks to their multi-process character, has been developed. In Namibia, sand ramps were terra incognita. This study defines, classifies and systematizes sand ramps, investigates the formative processes and examines their palaeoenvironmental significance. The study region is located between the coastal Namib desert and the Great Escarpment, between the Tiras Mountains to the north and the Aus area to the south. Two lines of work were followed: geomorphological and sedimentological investigations in the field, assisted by interpretation of satellite images, aer...
