Launches Unmanned Swarm for Scientific Research in Xiangyanghong 10 - China

An intelligent seawater sampling unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) departs from the "Xiangyanghong 10" in the northern waters of the South China Sea, July 9, 2025. Chinese researchers successfully carried out scientific tests involving various types of drones, unmanned surface vessels, and autonomous underwater vehicles aboard the "Xiangyanghong 10" in the northern waters of the South China Sea in recent days. The "Innovative Integrated Intelligent Systems Expedition," led by the Advanced Institute for Ocean Research under Southern University of Science and Technology, in collaboration with multiple research institutes, high-tech companies, and science popularization organizations, conducted real-time assessments of the innovation, integration, and intelligence of these unmanned scientific exploration devices.

Since July 20, a Chinese expedition team has been conducting research on the water resources and ecological environment in the headwater regions of the Yangtze and Lancang rivers. The expedition, comprising around 20 members, carried out scientific investigations into river hydrology, water ecology, soil erosion, glaciers and permafrost in 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. Qinghai is home to the Sanjiangyuan area, which contains the headwaters of China's three major rivers: the Yangtze River, the longest in China; the Yellow River, the second-longest; and the Lancang River, which is known as the Mekong River a
