The Evolution of the Quaternary Salt Lakes in the Qaidam Basin
Acta Geologica Sinica - English Edition, 1994Abstract The paper discusses the distribution of Quaternary sediments, occurrence of saline minerals and phases of neotectonic movements and their manifestations in the Qaidam basin. The formation of four successive lacustrine terraces in Tertiary anticlinal zones in the western part of the basin was related to the neotectonic movements that took place

Yardang geometries in the Qaidam Basin and their controlling factors
Geomorphology, 2017Abstract The hyperarid Qaidam Basin features extensive fields of yardangs (covering an area of ~ 40,000km2) sculpted in tectonically folded sedimentary rocks. We extracted the geometries of 16,749 yardangs, such as length-to-width ratio (L/W), spatial density, and spacing, from multi-source remote sensing data provided by Google Earth™. We classified

Abstract The Qaidam Basin has very little precipitation but large surface evaporation. Besides, the groundwater resources are unevenly distributed, which gradually decrease from east to west. Therefore, reasonable exploration and management of the groundwater resources are very important in this area.

Late Accumulation of Kunbei Area in Qaidam Basin
Advanced Materials Research, 2013This paper is aimed to find out the main reason of late accumulation of Kunbei area in Qaidam Basin using geochemistry and seismic data and to provide scientific evidence to the potential petroleum exploration in this area. Reservoirs in Kunbei fault terrace zone originate from petreoleum generated by source rocks of E32 in Zhahaquan depression after ...

Applicability analysis of multiple precipitation products in the Qaidam Basin, Northwestern China
Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2021In the Qaidam Basin, meteorological stations are sparsely distributed, and the observational precipitation data are therefore not comprehensive, which significantly hampers the accurate assessment and optimal allocation of regional water resources. This study aims to evaluate the accuracy of three precipitation products (MSWEP V2, GPM IMERG V6, and ...
