In order to explore the responses of natural desert sand and dust to the dynamics of water in desertification, we extracted long-term monitoring data related to precipitation, soil water, groundwater, and sand-dust weather. These data originated from the test stations for desertification control in desert areas of the middle reaches of the Heihe River. We used an algorithm of characteristic parameters, correlations, and multiple regression analysis to establish a regression model for the duration of sand-dust weather. The response char-acteristics of the natural desert sand and dust and changes of the water inter-annual and annual variance were also examined. Our results showed： （1） From 2006 to 2014 the frequency, duration, and volatility trends of sand-dust weather obviously increased, but the change amplitudes of precipitation, soil water, and groundwater level grew smaller. （2） In the vegetative growth seasons from March to November, the annual variance rates of the soil moisture content in each of four studied layers of soil samples were similar, and the changes in the frequency and duration of sand-dust weather were similar. （3） Our new regression equation for the duration of sand-dust weather passed the R test, F test, and t test. By this regression model we could predict the duration of sand-dust weather with an accuracy of 42.9%. This study can thus provide technological support and reference data for water resource management and re-search regarding sand-dust weather mechanisms.展开更多
The actual situation of two sand and dust weather processes with heavy pollution in Ulanqab City in 2021 was analyzed from the aspects of air quality,visibility,PM_(2.5)and PM_(10),and the causes of the sand and dust ...The actual situation of two sand and dust weather processes with heavy pollution in Ulanqab City in 2021 was analyzed from the aspects of air quality,visibility,PM_(2.5)and PM_(10),and the causes of the sand and dust weather with heavy pollution were discussed.The differences between the two processes in transport characteristics of sand and dust were studied,and the roles of high-and low-altitude weather systems and their impact on sand and dust transport were explored.展开更多
