| Abstract: | Luobupo salt lake is famous for its ring shape which looks like a big ear observed from satellite image. These rings recorded the information about water retreat and advance. In this paper TM data is used to study the brightness of these rings and then deduce the paleoclimate. The result showed that the brightness curve of these rings has a similar climate trend to that deduced from Guliya ice core record. |
