Characteristics of inland quaternary basins in Northwest China with reference to their hydrological significance
Abstract Chen Mengxiong, 1994. Characteristics of inland Quaternary basins in Northwest China with reference to their hydrological significance. In: E.J.F. de Mulder (Editor), Engineering Geology of Quaternary Deposits.Eng. Geol., 37: 61–65. Quaternary inland basins are well-developed in northwest China, better known as the typical Gobi Desert area. Most of these Quaternary basins are features inherited from Meso-Cenozoic basins. They are characterized by long sequences of gravel formations and strong neotectonics. Several patterns of basin structures have been classified on the basis of different intensities of neotectonic movements. This paper gives a detailed analysis of the sedimentary and structural features of these different basin types paying special attention to their hydrological significance.
