The progress and prospects of nebkhas in arid areas

“…Soil types in the study area mainly include aeolian sandy soil, chestnut soil and grey-brown desert soil. Yang and Gao,2000;Liu et al, 2002;Jia et al, 2002Jia et al, , 2003Wei et al, 2005;Zhao et al, 2005;Zhang et al, 2005;Cui et al,2007;Du et al, 2007aDu et al, , 2007bDu et al, ,2008Du et al, , 2009 This paper reviews the progress of studies in nebkhas, including shape characteristics, spatial distribution, surface airflow, balance between erosion and disposition, vegetation characteristics, soil properties and protection measures of nebkhas. We also point out some shortages in the present studies and some aspects to which we should pay more attention in future studies.…”
