Plateau test slogan

The significance of this experiment is to alleviate the melting of plateau glaciers.

Generally speaking, it is of great significance to carry out artificial snow-adding and ice-supplementing experiments on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Thanks to the successful development of a large unmanned aerial vehicle on the plateau, this experiment was carried out. This experiment is not to spread snow directly to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, but to increase snow and ice supply by changing the local climate. Specifically, the significance of this experiment lies in preventing water shortage downstream, preventing glaciers from melting and resisting global warming. The author will explain these contents in detail below.

First, the significance of China's experiment of increasing snow and ice on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau lies in preventing water shortage downstream: because the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau belongs to China? The source of fresh water? The water of the Yangtze River, the Yellow River and other rivers and lakes comes from the melting of glaciers on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Including groundwater and underground tributaries, were also formed after glaciers melted. It can be seen that it is very important to protect glaciers. If glaciers shrink and the amount of snow melts decreases, it will easily lead to water shortage or even drought in the downstream. Ice and snow can increase the amount of snow by changing the local climate, which is beneficial to glacier deposition, thus maintaining the original appearance of glaciers and preventing them from shrinking. Therefore, the significance of this test is to prevent water shortage downstream.

Secondly, the significance of carrying out the experiment of increasing snow and supplementing ice on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in China is to prevent glaciers from melting, because the melting and formation of glaciers are in a dynamic balance. As the temperature of the earth increases year by year, the equilibrium point moves closer to the melting direction. So it is urgent to protect glaciers. Increasing snow and supplementing ice by changing the climate in the glacier area can not only resist the melting of glaciers, but even restore them. Therefore, the significance of this experiment is to prevent glaciers from melting.

Thirdly, the significance of China's experiment of increasing ice and snow in Qinghai-Tibet lies in resisting global warming: with the development of society and science and technology, the global carbon dioxide emissions are increasing year by year, which leads to more and more obvious greenhouse effect. Although glaciers also have a self-regulating mechanism, they can be resisted by changing the local climate and adding ice and snow when adjusting the peak. So the significance of this experiment is to resist global warming.
