Observation of Number Concentration of Desert Aerosols in the South of the Taklimakan Desert, China

Journal of the Meteorological Society of Japan. Ser. II, 2005
Observation of number concentration of aerosol particles in the south of the Taklimakan Desert, China, was conducted using optical particle counter (OPC). Observations were made in the edge of the small oasis Qira, which is located in the southern Tarim Basin, during the springtime in 2002, 2003, and 2004.

The Impacts of Taklimakan Dust Events on Chinese Urban Air Quality in 2015

Atmosphere, 2018
Aerosols are an important factor affecting air quality. As the largest source of dust aerosol of East Asia, the Taklimakan Desert in Northwest China witnesses frequent dust storm events, which bring about significant impacts on the downstream air quality.

Population structure and selective signature of sheep around Tarim Basin

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Extreme climate change may lead to a decline in biodiversity and species extinction. And it also results in different population structure and genetic diversity of sheep.

Climate‐Driven Changes in Spring Dust Emissions Over China: WRF‐Chem Projections Under SSP2‐4.5 and SSP5‐8.5 Scenarios

Earth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Global climate change is significantly impacting dust emission patterns in arid and semi‐arid regions, posing challenges to environmental quality and human health. However, the impacts of future climate change on dust emissions in China remain insufficiently understood.

Coupled Glacial, Fluvial and Aeolian Processes Induced Provenance Shift of Sandy Deserts Surrounding the Northeastern Tibetan Plateau

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 20, 28 October 2025.
Abstract The Badain Jaran Desert hosts the world's tallest mega‐dunes, but its long‐term sand sources remain poorly constrained, limiting insights into its evolutionary mechanisms. Geochemical fingerprints of multiple grain‐size fractions from a centrally located borehole yielded a ∼1.2 Ma provenance record: early sediments derived mainly from the ...

Diurnal variations of saltation activity at Tazhong: the hinterland of Taklimakan Desert [PDF]

Meteorology and Atmospheric Physics, 2012
The Taklimakan Desert of China is a region of frequent sandstorms and, thus, is a major sand and dust source area. Tazhong, a small mining village, is located near the center of the Taklimakan Desert at a distance of 220 km from the desert margins. Near Tazhong, we conducted a 2-year field investigation designed to monitor the diurnal variation of ...

Spatiotemporal fusion for crop model assimilation: Linfen Basin case study, Chinese Loess Plateau

Agronomy Journal, Volume 117, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
Abstract Spatiotemporal fusion addresses challenges in crop growth monitoring: namely, spatial discreteness of high‐resolution imagery and spectral mixing in high‐temporal‐frequency data. These can hinder accurate yield and phenology estimates, especially in fragmented semi‐arid landscapes.
