Abstract: Dust observation is an important step of environmental and meteorological factors monitor, desert ecosystem study and desertification control, and aeolian sand transport has great influence on ecosystem. Traps of various types have been used to observe aeolian sand transport, but the problem of observation precision has not been solved. This paper summarized research progress of domestic and foreign dust observation instruments in both horizontal and vertical sediment flux, and pointed out the problems existing and future trends in these instruments. Automation and standardization are the developing orientations of dust observation instruments.

Key words: dust, observation instruments, current situation, dust deposition, developing orientation
