A nabkha, nebkha or nebka is a type of sand dune. Other terms used include coppice dune and dune hummock or hummocky dune, but these more accurately refer to similar, but different, sand dune types. Authors have also used the terms phytogenic hillock, bush-mound, shrub-coppice dune, knob dune, dune tumulus, rebdou, nebbe, and takouit. In simplest terms, a nabkha is a sand dune that forms around vegetation. It is an aeolian landform, a structure built and shaped by the action of wind.

  • Nabkas sind ortsfeste Sanddünen, die vom Wind um Hindernisse (Pflanzenbewuchs oder im Boden verankerte Objekte wie Baumstrünke oder Steine) angehäuft werden. Diese relativ kleinen Sandaufwehungen treten häufig in ariden Regionen auf. Sie gehören zu den in Strömungsschatten entstandenen Strukturen. (de)
  • Une nebka (ou nebkha) désigne un type particulier de dune qui se forme au contact d'un ensemble végétal. Il s'agit d'un relief éolien qui est créé et modelé par l'action du vent. Les nebkas sont communes et retrouvées dans de nombreuses régions du globe : désert d'Arabie, Xinjiang, Nouveau-Mexique et état de Chihuaha. De nombreuses espèces végétales psammophiles peuvent contribuer à la formation des nebkas. On citera par exemple Yucca elata, Larrea tridentata et le genre Atriplex dans le désert de Chihuahua. (fr)
