The results of two drill cores in the Hetao Basin are first reported. Lake and desert alternately developed in the Hetao Basin during the Quaternary. The origin of the Hobq Desert can be traced back to the early Pleistocene. Evolution of the Yellow River controls the Hetao Basin environment changes. Complex causes for dune and lake formations in the Hetao Basin are discussed.
