Short summary
The water consumption imbalance in Tarim Basin is caused by human activities and tilts the humidity profile over the basin.

At the same time, the Westerlies carry the low humidity air mass out of the eastern part of the basin to make the downwind Gobi Desert and surrounding areas drier.
