主 题:Minqin the lower layer sand-dust horizontal flux vertical deposition
摘 要:By measuring the sand-dust flux,vertical deposition,and the wind velocity throughout 19 sandstorms in the Minqin region,we quantitatively analyzed the horizontal distribution and vertical variation in sandstorm characteristics under different land cover *** effect of different land cover on mitigating sandstorms was also *** results indicated that,in the surface layer ranging from 0-50 m,the intensity of sand-dust horizontal flux and concentration of sand-dust decreased with the increase of the height in the desert and the edge of oasis,whereas the two physical quantities increased slightly with the increase of the height in the *** two physical quantities obey power function well under all three cover ***,in the desert and at the edge of oasis,the sand-dust vertical deposition decreased with the increase of the *** a partial unimodal distribution at the oasis site and the maximum deposition occurred at the height of 9 m,which corresponds to the middle height of farmland protection *** annual flux that passed through a section of 1 m in width and 50 m in height was 9169 kg in the desert,5318 kg at the edge of oasis,and 2345 kg in the *** the annual fluxes at the edge of oasis and in the oasis are 42% and 74% less,respectively,than that in the *** implies that the wind break forest significantly reduced the intensity of sandstorms.
