摘要：
Over 160 bays were delineated, thus indicating they are major land-forms in the area. Bays differed from those reported in other regions by being less elliptical, more westerly oriented, and lacking well-developed rims in any specific quadrant. More than one period of bay formation is suggested by differential pedogenic development and geomorphic positions. Wind and waves are suggested as factors in bay formation based on well-sorted sands of elevated rims, 'dune-like' character, and silt content of possible aeolian origin.-from Authors
