Jimu 1 balloon breaks ground in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau expedition
"This experiment, with its diverse payloads and rich data, will provide core data support for research on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, aiding in the in-depth analysis of climate and environmental changes on the plateau," said Zhang.
"It also lays the foundation for dynamic monitoring and sustainable development in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and other global climate change-sensitive areas."
Since 2017, the aerostat has been deeply involved in the scientific expedition, conducting systematic observations in core areas, such as Nyingchi, Namtso Lake, Mount Qomolangma or Mount Everest in the West, and Tsonyi county within the Xizang autonomous region, the Hoh Xil area in the Qinghai province, and Tashkurgan area in the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region.
