Characteristics of moisture and salinity of soil in Taklimakan Desert, China

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 2012
The Taklimakan desert is known as the largest dunefield in China and also as the world's second largest shifting sand desert. The Tarim Desert Highway, which is the first highway to cross the Taklimakan desert, was built for the purpose of oil and gas resources extraction in the Tarim area, as well as for the development of the southern area of the ...

ACE-ASIA - Regional climatic and atmospheric chemical effects of Asian dust and pollution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Although continental-scale plumes of Asian dust and pollution reduce the amount of solar radiation reaching the earth's surface and perturb the chemistry of the atmosphere, our ability to quantify these effects has been limited by a lack of critical ...
