In arid places the same physics amplify evaporation and drought, visible in the dust-dry farms of the Murray-Darling River Basin in Australia.

This probably because that Heihe River Basin was mainly controlled and affected by water vapor of westerlies, and local evaporation was weak in cold season.

This basin is located in north China continental arid and semi-arid climate zones . Low rainfall and strong evaporation, weak ecological environment in general.
