The paper describes the vegetation of sand dunes in Cholistan. Studies enlighten
edaphic, biotic, climatic factors and the successional trends on these dunes. It is
concluded that the stabilization of these dunes will be possible by protection of
indigenous vegetation, restriction, of livestock grazing, development of water points and
use of barriers against wind erosion.
