Abstract: This paper discussed the relations of sand deposits with wind activity strength around the high windbreaks. Results show that under some limitations there are close correlations between the wind activity strength and sand deposits. According to this correlation, through measurements of sand deposits around the high windbreaks we estimated the variations of wind activity strength on different ground surfaces and different geomorphologic terrains along the branches of Taklimakan Desert Highway, accordingly inferred some laws or characteristics of wind activities in the central Taklimakan. For instances, the maximum sand transport in this region is about 17 m³·m^-1·a^-1; some simple linear dunes within interdunes may be the major channels of sand transport; activities of compound/complex longitudinal dunes are similar with that of the single dunes in the central Taklimakan.
