英文摘要 | Grain size is a proxy indicator of airflow intensity and also provides a scientific basis for the prevention of dust hazards. However, the variations in grain size characteristics that occur during transport and deposition processes are seldom discussed. Here, atmospheric dust samples were collected before and after deposition in a sand-dust storm for grain size analysis. The results showed that the grain size distributions of the atmospheric dust were unimodal during transportation but always became bimodal after deposition. This indicates that the bimodal grain size distribution of the aeolian deposits was caused by sedimentary sorting. The coarse-grained component, which was between 20 and 200 mu m, was mainly deposited during the sand-dust storm. Grain size may indicate the strength of the airflow field. The fine-grained component, which ranged in size from 0.4 to 20 mu m, was mainly deposited after the sand-dust storm. This component can remain suspended in the atmosphere for a long period of time. Oasis shelterbelts can be used to reduce the fine-grained component of the dust aerosol through the interception of particles by foliage. The grain size variation found in this study from before to after sand-dust storm deposition deepens our understanding of the sediment sorting process. |
