Abstract

Highlights: [•] Shows consistent size–duration relationship for Earth and Mars dust devils. [•] Uses durations to estimate detection efficiencies. [•] Notes large-devil bias in small-area surveys due to advection into study area. [•] Notes orbital data suggests higher counts, maybe due to aspect ratio. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
