    (230228) -- YICHANG, Feb. 28, 2023 (Xinhua) -- A researcher uses a pair of binoculars to conduct monitoring work during a scientific expedition on Yangtze finless porpoises at the Shishou section of the Yangtze River, central China's Hubei Province, Sept. 23, 2022. A scientific investigation conducted by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs in 2022 showed that the number of Yangtze finless porpoises has reached 1,249, up 23.42 percent from five years ago, according to a press conference held on Tuesday. The finless porpoise, known as the "giant panda of the water," is a barometer of the ecological environment in the Yangtze River basin. (Xinhua/Xiao Yijiu)

China launched a scientific survey of Yangtze finless porpoises, an iconic species in the country's longest river Yangtze, on Monday, with an aim to formulate a more targeted protection plan for the species. Organized by the Yangtze river basin fishery administration under the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, the expedition has been jointly undertaken by local fishery authorities of six provincial-level regions, scientific research institutions, and social organizations. Data on the porpoise population and distribution, as well as the environment of its habitats, will be collected during this scientific expedition to determine the factors that may threaten the species and evaluate the effect of the current protection measures.

                      STORY: Scientists investigate micro ecosystem in Yangtze headwaters DATELINE: Aug. 3, 2022 LENGTH: 00:01:13 LOCATION: XINING, China CATEGORY: SCIENCE SHOTLIST: 1. various of Chinese scientists investigating micro ecosystem in Yangtze headwaters STORYLINE: Chinese scientists launched an expedition on Sunday in the headwater regions of the Yangtze and Lancang rivers in northwest China's Qinghai Province, to investigate the regions' water resources and ecological environment. The headwaters of the Yangtze River, located on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, are rich in microscopic organisms such as phytoplankton, zooplankton and benthic animals. 　　 These biological communities which need to be observed under a microscope contain various species of different shapes. They provide energy for the aquatic ecosystem including food for fish. 　　 They are an indicator for the ecological health status of the Yangtze headwaters, and can reflect water quality. 　　 Data from the expedition shows that now there are more than 40 sp
