Occurrences of dust storms and long‐distance movement of dust across landscapes is constantly increasing in south Asia. This dust is expected to have profound impact on vegetation health and sustainability as dust may contribute to nutrient budgets of the forest ecosystems, while it could impart various stresses to the plants.

Growth, physiological characteristics and ion distribution of NaCl stressed Alhagi sparsifolia seedlings [PDF]
Alhagi sparsifolia is a leguminous perennial desert species that is plays an important role in dune stabilization and revegetation of degraded desert ecosystems. We investigated the effects of three different levels of salinity (50, 150, 250 mmol/L NaCl)

Abstract Loess deposits on the Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP) serve as key terrestrial archives of late‐Cenozoic paleoclimate. However, the formation timing and origin of different‐size fractions remain unclear. This study applies the (234U/238U) activity ratio to seven silt‐size fractions (2–63 μm) from the CLP loess to estimate the pre‐deposition ...

Influence of floodwater irrigation on vegetation composition and vegetation regeneration in a Taklimakan desert oasis [PDF]
Naturally occurring floods in the summer months are the main source of surface water application in the foreland of Qira oasis, which is characterized by a hyperarid climate and is located at the southern fringe of the Taklimakan Desert.

Soil‐derived sulfate in atmospheric dust particles at Taklimakan desert [PDF]
Dust‐associated sulfate is believed to be a key species which can alter the physical and chemical properties of dust particles in the atmosphere. Its occurrence in the particles has usually been considered to be the consequence of particles' aging in the air although it is present in some crustal minerals. Our observation at the north and south edge of

Exploring the Impact of Dynamic Dust Source on the East Asian Dust Cycle Using WRF‐Chem
Abstract Dust emission is a prerequisite to accurately describe the physical processes of dust and is closely associated with dust sources; however, the spatial and temporal variation of East Asian dust sources has not been accurately quantified.
