Welcome to a new episode of Muztagh Ata Expedition Log!
Today, we're diving into the world of ice cores. These cylinders of ice hold crucial climate history and are one of the most vital tools for scientists to study and combat climate change. We are drilling on Muztagh Ata to understand climate patterns at different heights. Stay tuned for more on the Tibetan Plateau and the team's incredible dedication.
Changes in climate, especially a rising temperature and reduced precipitation, will influence the ecological stability in desert regions, according to the latest research from the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).
To understand and predict regional scale or even local scale climate extremes is a great challenge not only because they are rare but also because they are sometime, if not often, non-Gaussian distribution. Two approaches for statistical prediction/downscaling of non-Gaussian climate extremes were proposed
