Study on wind erosion resistance of gravel curtain layer in desert mining areas of the Eastern Junggar Basin, Xinjiang by Jingwen LI, Weiming GUAN, Zhenqi HU, Meng XIE, Gensheng LI, Jie TAN, Yu ZHENG, Jiayi SUN

“…The physicochemical parameters of soil were ranked as follows in descending order of the correlation coefficient: clay content (0.946) > organic matter (0.894) > calcium carbonate (0.888) > moisture content (0.518) > silt content (0.312). Clay content has the most significant impact on the shear strength of soil crust, and it not only directly affects shear strength but also exerts indirect influence through calcium carbonate (0.7741) and organic matter (0.7733). ④ The terrain of the Eastern Junggar Basin slopes from low in the northwest to high in the southeast, and the distribution pattern of its soil properties is consistent with the topographical gradient of the region.…”
