| Abstract: |
| Three typical regions were selected in Ebinur Lake wetland of Xinjiang in China, and the soil granularity contents were determined. Based on the data information, statistics method was employed to analyze the impact of winds in Alashankou on distribution of soil granularity. The results showed that: the average granularity of the soil were 101.49 μm, 77.54 μm and 49.82 μm respectively in Alashankou area (Region A), Bo River and Jinghe downstream riparian (Region B) and Aqikesu River riparian (Region C). The skewness of three regions show positive, and the mean values were 4.01, 3.71 and 2.77. The results of soil texture show the main ingredient is grit in Alashankou area, gravel and silt in Bo River and Jinghe downstream riparian and silt in Aqikesu River riparian. The human activities and perennial wind erosion in Alashankou mainly influence the characteristics of the soil granularity in Ebinur wetland. The study reveals the forming process of soil, as well as in providing scientific reference for restoring of soil degradation and dust resistance of the region studied. |
