	Geomorphic processes and remote sensing signatures of alluvial fans in the Kun Lun Mountains, China
		Radar images from the Spaceborne Radar Laboratory and visible wavelength images from the French SPOT satellite were used to determine remote sensing signatures of alluvial fan units for an area in the Kun Lun Mountains of northwestern China.
		These data were combined with field observations to compare surface processes and their effects on remote sensing signatures in northwestern China and the southwestern United States.
		Thus the Kun Lun signatures are indicative of the dominance of salt weathering, while signatures from the southwestern United States are characteristic of the dominance of desert varnish and pavement processes.

		This route has been replaced with the Karakoram Highway, built at an enormous cost of human life, estimated to exceed that even of the Great Pyramids of Egypt, over which in 1993 was said to have been carried a grand total of $4,000,000 worth of trade (locals are enormously proud of such a large number).

		The Kun Lun Mountains in Xinjiang, the westernmost province of China, are the source, since the earliest Chinese Dynasties, of the famous white Nephrite Jade for the Chinese kings and emperors.
		This "Mountain or Shan Liao" jade was however considered inferior to the "River or Zi Yu" jade because of the likely presence of hidden fractures raised the danger that, after months of toiling labor, a Jade object would break before its completion.
		The Jade collection in the region of Kothan was described, next to numerous Chinese envoys and texts, by different Europeans travelers such as Marco Polo (1272-73) and the Jesuit priest Benedict Goes (1602) as they and others were on their way, on the southern leg of the Silk Road, to Cathay and the Imperial China.
