(EyesOnSci)CHINA-YUNNAN-DEBRIS FLOW-SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH (CN)

(240514) -- DONGCHUAN, May 14, 2024 (Xinhua) -- An aerial drone photo taken on May 7, 2024 shows researchers detecting strata on the alluvial fan of debris flow at the Jiangjiagou ravine in Dongchuan District of Kunming, southwest China's Yunnan Province. The Jiangjiagou ravine, located in the Xiaojiang River Basin, was a frequent landslide occurring area. In 1961, an observation and research station of debris flows, known as Dongchuan Station, was established in Jiangjiagou area. Since then, several generations of researchers have observed and studied debris flows, and established a comprehensive disaster reduction model of "stabilizing, blocking and draining", which has laid the foundation of debris flow science in China. A large-scale dynamic simulation experiment platform for mountain disaster was recently put into use in Dongchuan Station. The completion of this scientific device will reveal the natural law of debris flow outbreak, tackle the problems on prevention and control, and reduce the harm o

(230827) -- URUMQI, Aug. 27, 2023 (Xinhua) -- This photo taken on Aug. 21, 2023 shows a worker on the drilling platform for a borehole over 10,000 meters deep in the hinterland of the Taklimakan Desert within the Tarim Basin, northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. The drilling of China's first borehole over 10,000 meters deep for scientific exploration began on May 30 this year in the Tarim Basin. With a design depth of 11,100 meters, the borehole is located in the hinterland of the Taklimakan Desert, the largest desert in China. During the drilling process, the equipment, including drill bits and drill pipes weighing more than 2,000 tonnes, will go deep into the Earth, penetrating more than 10 continental strata. The Tarim Basin is one of the most difficult areas to explore due to its harsh ground environment and complicated underground conditions. By Aug. 27, 2023, the equipment has reached the depth of 6,000 meters. (Xinhua/Wang Peng)

Fossils in China reveal rise of jawed vertebrates

STORY: Fossils in China reveal rise of jawed vertebrates DATELINE: Oct. 1, 2022 LENGTH: 00:00:35 LOCATION: CHONGQING, China CATEGORY: SCIENCE SHOTLIST: 1. pictures of fossils 2. various of computer-generated images of Silurian fish species STORYLINE: A trove of fossils in China unearthed in rocks dating back some 440 million years showed new fish species and provided concrete evidence of the origin and earliest evolution of the jawed vertebrates. The four papers published Wednesday in the journal Nature described an array of findings based on the fossils found at two fossil beds in the early Silurian strata -- "Chongqing Fossil Bed" and "Guizhou Shiqian Fossil Bed." Silurian is an era about 440 to 410 million years ago, during which the jawed vertebrates evolved. It was a breakthrough in life evolution, but it lacks previous paleontological records.
