Hydrological interactions between oases and water vapor transportation in the Tarim Basin, northwestern China

Abstract: The spatial evolution of the oasis cold-wet effects in Tarim Basin, northwestern China, are explored quantitatively by using the China Meteorological Forcing Dataset, with spatial and temporal resolution of 0.1 degree and 3 hours, respectively, and the hydrological interactions between the oases and water vapor transfer are discussed to uncover the influence of oases on regional precipitation. The results reveal that the annual precipitation exhibits an increasing trend from desert toward oasis at all four oas… Show more

“…Apart from the cold-wet effect of oasis, the significant uplift of the terrain would lead to a sharp decrease in temperature and result in a substantial increase in precipitation at the local scale. As given in our previous study [49], the increment of the elevation is about 80-100 m. Meanwhile, the widths of Kashi, Akesu, Kuerle and Hetian Oases are approximately 210, 120, 80 and 55 km, respectively, as shown in Figure 5. This indicates that the increase rate is ordered by: Hetian > Kuerle > Akesu > Kashi.…”

“…The reason can be attributed to the transportation of water vapor. As discussed above, the wind blowing from the oasis to the desert would decrease the cold-wet effect of the oasis substantially [49].…”
