What are the causes of sandstorms on the Loess Plateau?
Sandstorm is a disastrous weather phenomenon in which wind and sand interact. Its formation is closely related to global greenhouse effect, El Nino phenomenon, forest decline, vegetation destruction, species extinction, climate anomaly and other factors. Among them, excessive exploitation of natural resources, excessive deforestation and excessive land reclamation caused by population expansion are the main reasons for frequent sandstorms.
As a kind of high-intensity sandstorm disaster, sandstorm can't happen in all windy places, but only in those areas with dry climate and sparse vegetation. In the northwest of China, the forest coverage rate is not high, and the poor northwest people want to make a fortune by digging licorice, holding seaweed and mining. These predatory acts of destruction further aggravated the sandstorm disaster in this area. Exposed land is easily rolled up by strong winds, forming sandstorms or even strong sandstorms.
