Geomorphoclimatic characteristics and landform information in the Ejina Basin, Northwest China

Abstract: Natural environment of mid-latitude deserts of Central Asia is undergoing rapid changes. One of its elements is the relief. What needs to be particularly emphasized is its morphogenesis and landform evolution. In this study, a geomorphological research in the Ejina Basin (Inner Mongolia) is carried out with regard to identifying the main landforms and the contemporary geomorphic processes. We consider ancient and modern landforms as a unit and provide a general explanation for their evolution. Related environm… Show more

“…It is a privileged place to observe the relationship between mountain, peneplain and basin playas which are directly connected to the genesis of the Ejina landscapes Zhu et al, , 2015. The Ejina geomorphological complexity is firstly determined by lithology and tectonics factors, which are obvious morphotectodynamic processes indicated by significant gradients between mountain peaks (Mazong Mountains) and basin floors (Juyan Lake) in the Ejina (Zhu et al, 2015).…”

“…It is a privileged place to observe the relationship between mountain, peneplain and basin playas which are directly connected to the genesis of the Ejina landscapes Zhu et al, , 2015. The Ejina geomorphological complexity is firstly determined by lithology and tectonics factors, which are obvious morphotectodynamic processes indicated by significant gradients between mountain peaks (Mazong Mountains) and basin floors (Juyan Lake) in the Ejina (Zhu et al, 2015). Besides tectodynamics, satellite imagery and field observations also show that the most widely spread landscapes in the arid regions of China are desert plains and aerodynamic landforms (Hoevermann 1985;Yang 2001;Yang et al 2004Yang et al , 2011a, of which the Ejina Basin is the most representative (Zhu et al, 2015).…”
