Deep soil water rainfall infiltration is an important part of the water cycle in desert areas. It has important significance for water resources assessment and water balance. The YWB-01 Deep Soil Infiltration Water Recorder was used to measure the quantity of rain infiltration into deep soil, in six locations in China: the Horqin, Hunshandake and Mu Us Sandy Land, Hobq, Ulan Buh and Gurbantonggut deserts over a long period. The results showed that deep soil infiltration had significant differences consistency with temporal and spatial characteristics of rainfall in shifting dunes, which rainfall patterns was the main factors affecting the deep infiltration, rainfall and the deep infiltration amount was significantly (p<0.05) positive correlation in semi-arid areas, but the correlation was not significant (p>0.05) in the arid areas. The shifting dunes deep soil rainfall infiltration (200 cm), 48.5 mm, 146.8 mm and 1.0 mm in the observation period, composing 21.4%, 33.3% and 1.3% of the total precipitation in Baiqi, Yiqi and Fukang, respectively. In Wushen and Dengkou, deep soil rainfall infiltration (150 cm below) reached 1 009.6 and 52.6 mm mm in the total observation period, composing 55.7% and 12.7%, respectively, in shifting dunes. The deep infiltration had no significant differences in the fixed dunes, where the vegetation was the main factors affecting the deep infiltration rather than rainfall. Moreover, the deep infiltration was not more than 2% of the rainfall under the condition for vegetation cover more than 45%. The deep infiltration recharge was mainly from heavy rainfall or high frequency small rainfall, especially, the less rainfall and the low frequency rain in arid areas, its deep soil water recharge more dependent on heavy rainfall.
