STORYLINE:
Chinese scientists embarked on an expedition in northwest China's Qinghai Province recently to investigate the water resources and ecological environment in the headwater regions of the Yangtze and Lancang rivers.
STANDUP 1 (English): SHI WEIYAN, Xinhua correspondent
"At present, Chinese scientists are undertaking an expedition to explore the water resources and ecological environment of the headwater regions of the Yangtze and Lancang rivers in this area."
The scientists have found a notable increase in river flow and water levels in the headwaters region.
SOUNDBITE (Chinese): ZHOU YINJUN, Changjiang River Scientific Research Institute (CRSRI)
"In recent years, the runoff in the headwaters region has increased. For instance, the average annual runoff of the Yangtze River's headwater has increased by 84 million cubic meters.
Generally speaking, it indicates that our ecological environment will be further improved. The overall vegetation coverage, and even the biodiversity may also be improved."
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 after it flows out of China.
As important parts of the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau ecosystem, the headwater regions of the Yangtze and Lancang rivers play a crucial role in safeguarding water resources, protecting biodiversity and ensuring ecological stability.
STANDUP 2 (English): SHI WEIYAN, Xinhua correspondent
"This expedition endeavors to provide a greater understanding of these matters and offer valuable insights for future conservation efforts."
Annual scientific expeditions to the source of the Yangtze River have been conducted since 2012.
