Abstract:Sediment grain size characterization is one of the main components of wind-sand geomorphology research. The distribution and form of grain size parameters of different types of sediments were calculated using six surface types of sediments around Qixing Lake in the Kubuqi Desert: Mobile dune(MD), Semi-fixed dune(SFD), Fixed dune(FD), Lakeshore terrace(LST), Wetland(WL) and Grassy flat wetland(GFW). The results showed that the surface sediments around Qixing Lake in Kubuqi Desert were mainly composed of medium … Show more
