Observed Key Surface Parameters for Characterizing Land–Atmospheric Interactions in the Northern Marginal Zone of the Taklimakan Desert, China

Abstract: An observational data set of the year 2010 at a site in the northern marginal zone of the Taklimakan Desert (TD) was used to analyse the key surface parameters in land-atmospheric interactions in the desert climate of northwest China. We found that the surface albedo (α) and emissivity (ε) were 0.27 and 0.91, respectively, which were consistent with the values obtained based on observations in the hinterland of the TD as well as being similar to the dry parts of the Great Basin desert in North America, where t… Show more

“…From the results, C d had the mean value of 4.68 × 10 −3 and C h had the mean value of 2.26 × 10 −3 . Both were smaller at the www.nature.com/scientificreports www.nature.com/scientificreports/ station than in the north edge of the TD 20 . The mean value of C d was larger than in Gobi and other desert areas (e.g., Dunhung and HEIFE) 9,34,35 , but C h similar to those areas.…”
