Chinese researchers reached the top of Qomolangma on May 4, 2022. They set up the world's highest automatic(自动的) weather station at an altitude(海拔 ) of 8,830 meters. This helps them to study the influences of climate change on the environment.
It is the highest automatic weather station in the world now. It has taken the place of the station sitting at an altitude of 8,430 meters on the south side of the mountain, which is the second highest now. This allows Chinese scientists to directly collect data(数据) for the first time from the top of the world's highest mountain.
Collecting and studying data from Qomolangma is not easy. But the data will give valuable information about the condition of local glaciers (冰川) and mountain snow. It will also help scientists study and understand the global monsoon(季风) system, so experts can make proper decision s about climate change.
Yao Tandong, a famous expert, said Chinese scientists had set up eight weather stations from 5,200 to 8,830 meters above sea level. Half of the stations were set up at an altitude higher than 7,000 meters." Along with strong government support and hard work by scientists, China has become a global front- runner in fields such as climate change." Yao said.
