The newspaper said that in May of 200 1 year, the temperature in Lop Nur desert in Xinjiang was about MINUS 15 degrees Celsius. On cloudy days, the sand dunes are covered with a layer of snow with a thickness of 5 to 10 cm. Lop Nur in May. .....

There is a great temperature difference between day and night in the desert, especially in places like Xinjiang. The weather is changeable in May, and the temperature difference between the mountains and the desert is great. The temperature will drop below zero at night, it may snow at night, and it will die of heat at noon.

As a result, it snowed at MINUS 15 degrees Celsius at night, and the temperature rose sharply after the sun came out. Snow is directly "gasified" without the process of "melting", that is, snow is directly sublimated. Even if a small amount of snow melts, it is absorbed by the desert, which absorbs a lot of water.
