(230705) -- LIJIANG, July 5, 2023 (Xinhua) -- This aerial photo taken on June 20, 2023 shows the construction site of the water sourcing section of the Central Yunnan Water Diversion Project in Shigu Town of Lijiang City, southwest China's Yunnan Province. Shigu Town of Lijiang City is located by a huge bend of the Jinsha River, the upper section of the Yangtze River in southwest China. The footprints of the Red Army are forever engraved in the town's culture and spirits. The Central Yunnan Water Diversion Project, a national key project for water conservancy, is under construction and is expected to benefit more people after completion. Generations of locals have worked hard to plant willows along the river to protect water, soil and the ecological environment. By the river thrives a new Shigu Town. (Xinhua/Chen Xinbo)

    An aerial drone photo taken on November 14, 2024 shows a canal of the South-to-North Water Diversion Middle Route Project on the border between Beijing and north China's Hebei Province. China's South-to-North Water Diversion Project has three routes. The first phase of China's South-to-North Water Diversion Middle Route Project started supplying water in December 2014. Aimed at increasing water safety and improving the water ecology and environment along the route, the middle route project has been carrying water through canals and pipes from the Danjiangkou reservoir in central China's Hubei Province to Henan, Hebei, Beijing and Tianjin. Since operation, the project has transferred over 10.6 billion cubic meters of water to the capital city and benefited more than 16 million people. Photo by Xinhua/Chen Zhonghao/ABACAPRESS.COM

Chinese scientists embarked on an expedition on July 20 to investigate the water resources and ecological environment in the headwater regions of the Yangtze and Lancang rivers. The expedition, comprising around 20 members, will carry out scientific investigations into river hydrology, water ecology, soil erosion, glaciers and permafrost in northwest China's Qinghai Province. Key research projects include estimating the carbon stock of wetlands, assessing the impacts of permafrost thawing on the plateau, and measuring the thickness of permafrost on glaciers.
