Why Top:

One of the largest sand deserts in the world.


Description:

En Ру

Facts about the Taklamakan Desert:
– the second largest mobile sand desert in the world, approximately 85% of which consists of mobile sand dunes.
– on the outskirts of the Taklamakan, significant areas are occupied by salt marshes.
– rivers flowing from the Kunlun penetrate into the Taklamakan for 100-200 km, gradually drying up in the sands.
– the depth of groundwater in the depressions of the relief (within the ancient deltas and old rivers) is 3-5 m, they are usually difficult for plants to access.
– the climate is sharply continental, with an insignificant (less than 50 mm per year) amount of precipitation.
– in 2008, during an episode of winter storms in China, the Taklamakan was completely covered for the first time in the history of observations with a thin layer of snow, reaching 4 cm, with a temperature of -26.1 °C.
– in the windiest areas, sand dunes move an average of 20 m per year; therefore, bridges (viaducts) have been built in such areas to allow sand to pass underneath them, and trains and railways are less exposed to sandstorms.

Факты о пустыне Такла-Макан:
– вторая по величине подвижная песчаная пустыня в мире, примерно на 85% состоящая из подвижных песчаных дюн.
– по окраинам Такла-Макана значительные площади занимают солончаки.
– реки, стекающие с Кунь-Луня, проникают вглубь Такла-Макана на 100–200 км, постепенно иссякая в песках.
– глубина залегания подземных вод в понижениях рельефа (в пределах древних дельт и староречий) 3–5 м, они обычно труднодоступны для растений.
– Климат резко континентальный, с ничтожным (менее 50 мм в год) количеством атмосферных осадков.
– в 2008 году во время эпизода зимних штормов в Китае Такла-Макан впервые в истории наблюдений была полностью покрыта тонким слоем снега, достигающим 4 см, с температурой -26,1 °C.
– на наиболее ветреных участках песчаные дюны перемещаются в среднем на 20 м в год; в связи с этим на таких участках построены мосты (виадуки), чтобы песок проходил под ними, и поезда и железнодорожные пути меньше подвергались воздействию песчаных бурь.
